Direct-entry Lite-path shortcut (Alias of aid-change-api.) -- skips the aid-describe interview/triage. Binds VERB=`change` ARTIFACT=`api` and runs the shared shortcut engine, producing a fully-graded flattened Lite work that halts for approval. State machine: delegated to .claude/aid/templates/shortcut-engine.md (INTAKE -> CAPTURE -> SPEC -> PLAN -> DETAIL -> GATE -> APPROVAL-HALT).Key capabilities
- →Bind VERB to 'change'
- →Bind ARTIFACT to 'api'
- →Run a shared shortcut engine
- →Scaffold flattened Lite work
- →Author tasks for REQUIREMENTS, SPEC, PLAN, BLUEPRINT, and DETAIL
- →Run per-document Grading Gates
How it works
This skill binds the verb 'change' and artifact 'api' and then runs a shared shortcut engine to scaffold work, author tasks, and run grading gates.
Inputs & outputs
When to use aid-update-api
- →Update API endpoint schema
- →Change request parameter
- →Modify API response structure
About this skill
Shortcut: change api
<!-- GENERATED by .claude/skills/generate-profile/scripts/build-shortcut-skills.py from .claude/aid/templates/shortcut-catalog.yml -- DO NOT EDIT BY HAND; edit the catalog row and re-run the helper, then the full run_generator.py. -->This is a thin alias of aid-change-api -- identical {verb, artifact} binding, a separate directory (the generator provides no alias/redirect mechanism; see shortcut-catalog.yml's Topology note).
Bind VERB=change, ARTIFACT=api, then run the shared engine at .claude/aid/templates/shortcut-engine.md. The engine scaffolds the flattened Lite work (feature-001 structure), authors REQUIREMENTS -> SPEC -> PLAN + BLUEPRINT -> DETAIL tasks with reduced capture, runs the per-document Grading Gates (feature-004), and halts at the FR-10 approval gate. It never executes. This shortcut's default_type/group/alias_of are its row in .claude/aid/templates/shortcut-catalog.yml.
When not to use it
- →When an interview or triage process is desired
- →When immediate execution of changes is required
Limitations
- →The skill halts at the FR-10 approval gate
- →The skill never executes the changes
How it compares
This skill automates the initial setup and task generation for API changes, unlike a manual process that would require creating these elements individually.
