Bigcommerce Api
Build production BigCommerce integrations, apps, and headless storefronts with REST APIs and GraphQL
What You Can Do
You can architect and implement production-ready BigCommerce integrations using REST APIs, GraphQL Storefront API, and webhook automation. This skill guides you through API versioning decisions, OAuth authentication flows, rate limit management, multi-storefront channel architecture, and the complete app development lifecycle—from initial authentication setup through deploying integrations that handle real transactional data at scale.
Features
Know when to use V2 vs V3 endpoints for catalogs, customers, orders, and transactions
Implement store-level, app-level, and account-level credentials securely for single and multi-store setups
Monitor rate limits across REST APIs, Payments API, and GraphQL with exponential backoff retry logic
Handle channel_id assignment, cross-storefront products, orders, and checkouts correctly
Build headless storefronts with optimized GraphQL queries for products, carts, and checkout
Design webhook consumers for orders, products, and customer events with proper signature validation
Parse BigCommerce error responses and troubleshoot authentication, rate limits, and data sync issues
Example Output
Example 1: API Endpoint Decision
Task: Fetch product with metafields
Recommendation: Use V3 GET /catalog/products (supports metafields)
Not V2: V2 endpoints lack metafield support
Example 2: OAuth Setup for Marketplace App
Flow: App registration → Authorization code flow → Access token storage
Header: Authorization: Bearer {access_token}
Scope: store_v2_products store_v2_orders store_v2_customers
Example 3: Multi-Storefront Product Assignment
Step 1: Check channel_id (default storefront = 1)
Step 2: POST /catalog/products with channel_assignments array
Step 3: Verify product visibility across all assigned channels

Rapidly analyze production incidents by correlating observability signals—logs, metrics, traces, and events—to identify the true root cause instead of symptoms. You'll reconstruct incident timelines, quantify impact scope, and generate both immediate remediation steps and long-term prevention measures.
Claude analyzes your code diffs and generates standardized commit messages that follow the Conventional Commits specification. The skill automatically determines the correct commit type, scope, and description based on the changes you've made, ensuring your messages are parseable by automation tools while remaining human-readable for code reviewers.
Query your local Screenpipe instance to retrieve screen recordings, audio transcriptions, UI element accessibility trees, keyboard/mouse input logs, and productivity analytics. You can search by keywords, filter by content type (audio, OCR, accessibility, input), set time ranges, and extract structured data about your applications, meetings, and work sessions without sending data to external servers.

Transform schema and data changes into production-ready migration packages that protect data integrity and minimize downtime. You can handle column additions, renames, type conversions, and backfills using proven patterns like expand-contract and shadow tables. The skill generates explicit rollback scripts, validation checklists, and phased execution plans that keep applications stable throughout the migration.
You can submit your Solidity smart contracts for comprehensive security analysis, vulnerability detection, and gas optimization recommendations. Claude reviews your code against known attack vectors, design patterns, and best practices—identifying reentrancy risks, overflow/underflow issues, access control flaws, and inefficient operations. You receive actionable fix recommendations with explanations of the security implications and gas savings potential.
You can design end-to-end NGS pipelines tailored to your experiment type (WGS, WES, RNA-seq, targeted), troubleshoot pipeline failures by analyzing QC metrics and logs, and optimize performance by fine-tuning parameters and identifying bottlenecks. This skill handles the full workflow from raw sequencing data quality assessment through variant interpretation and annotation.
This skill guides you through designing Kalman filters for your specific state estimation and sensor fusion problems. You'll learn to diagnose filter divergence, tune covariance matrices (Q and R), and validate observability—turning mathematical theory into production-ready filters.
