Use {baseDir}/index.js to call RapidAPI with templates from {baseDir}/templates. Prefer this skill when the task involves RapidAPI endpoints or template-defined actions.

What This Skill Actually Does

This skill is a minimal RapidAPI client that turns RapidAPI endpoint definitions into callable actions. It is meant for:

• converting a RapidAPI endpoint into a stable action name
• standardizing inputs into query/body/header/path params
• returning a consistent ok/status/data/error/meta shape

It is not a server. It is a small local client you can call from scripts or other skills.

Key Capabilities

• Auto-registers templates from {baseDir}/templates/*.json
• listActions() enumerates all registered actions with schemas
• callAction(name, params) calls a template-defined endpoint
• callRapidApi(payload) allows direct RapidAPI calls without a template
• scripts/import-endpoint.js converts a RapidAPI endpoint JSON payload into a template file

Basic Usage

Use config-driven init (recommended):

import { createRapidApiSkill } from "{baseDir}/index.js";
import config from "{baseDir}/config.json" assert { type: "json" };

const skill = await createRapidApiSkill({ config });
const res = await skill.callAction("get_user_tweets", {
  user: "2455740283",
  count: 20
});

Or direct call (no template):

const skill = await createRapidApiSkill({ config });
const res = await skill.callRapidApi({
  host: "twitter241.p.rapidapi.com",
  path: "/user-tweets",
  method: "GET",
  query: { user: "2455740283", count: 20 }
});

Template Design Notes

Templates are plain JSON. They should contain:

• name, host, path, method
• querySchema (and optionally bodySchema, headerSchema, pathParams)

Example snippet:

{
  "name": "get_user_tweets",
  "host": "twitter241.p.rapidapi.com",
  "path": "/user-tweets",
  "method": "GET",
  "querySchema": {
    "user": {"type": "string", "required": true},
    "count": {"type": "number", "required": true},
    "cursor": {"type": "string"}
  }
}

Where It Fits

Use this skill when you need a consistent, reusable RapidAPI interface without building a backend. It is especially useful for:

• social data APIs (X/Twitter, TikTok, LinkedIn)
• search/aggregation APIs
• repeated RapidAPI calls across multiple tasks or workflows
