Automate Swagger/OpenAPI documentation and standardize API response schemas in NestJS.

  • Works in 4 steps: Enable Swagger plugin in nest-cli.json… → Annotate controllers with @ApiTags,… → Create generic wrappers for paginated… → …
  • Generating OpenAPI specs
  • SKILL.md covers Priority: P2 (MEDIUM), Workflow, Setup and Response Documentation, plus 3 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Nestjs Documentation is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Automate Swagger/OpenAPI documentation and standardize API response schemas in NestJS. Use when generating OpenAPI specs, documenting paginated or generic responses, configuring the Nest CLI Swagger plugin, or publishing versioned API docs.

Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json` and `references/example.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering OpenAPI specifications. It works with NestJS and OpenAPI. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Generating OpenAPI specs
  • Documenting paginated
  • Generic responses
  • Configuring the Nest CLI Swagger plugin

Example prompts

  • “/nestjs-documentation”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Enable Swagger plugin in nest-cli.json to auto-generate @ApiProperty from DTOs.
  2. Annotate controllers with @ApiTags, @ApiResponse, and auth decorators.
  3. Create generic wrappers for paginated and polymorphic responses.
  4. Generate separate docs for public vs internal audiences.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Nestjs Documentation loads about 542 tokens when it runs, and up to ~702 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 178 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~542
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~702

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Automate Swagger/OpenAPI documentation and standardize API response schemas in NestJS. Use when generating OpenAPI specs, documenting paginated or generic responses, configuring the Nest CLI Swagger plugin, or publishing versioned API docs.

OpenAPI & Documentation

Priority: P2 (MEDIUM)

Workflow

  1. Enable Swagger plugin in nest-cli.json to auto-generate @ApiProperty from DTOs.
  2. Annotate controllers with @ApiTags, @ApiResponse, and auth decorators.
  3. Create generic wrappers for paginated and polymorphic responses.
  4. Generate separate docs for public vs internal audiences.

Setup

See implementation examples for nest-cli.json plugin config and Swagger bootstrap.

Response Documentation

  • Strictness: Every controller method must @ApiResponse({ status: 200, type: UserDto }).
  • Generic Wrappers: Define ApiPaginatedResponse<T> decorators using ApiExtraModels + getSchemaPath() to handle generics properly.

Advanced Patterns

  • Polymorphism: Use @ApiExtraModels and getSchemaPath for oneOf/anyOf union types.
  • File Uploads: Use @ApiConsumes('multipart/form-data') with explicit @ApiBody schema.
  • Authentication: Use @ApiBearerAuth() or @ApiSecurity('api-key') matching DocumentBuilder config.
  • Enums: Force named enums: @ApiProperty({ enum: MyEnum, enumName: 'MyEnum' }).

Operation Grouping

  • Tags: Mandatory @ApiTags('domains') on every Controller.
  • Multiple Docs: Generate separate docs for different audiences (Public vs Internal).

See implementation examples

Anti-Patterns

  • No missing @ApiResponse: Every controller method must declare its response type and status code.
  • No /docs in production: Disable Swagger in production to prevent API schema exposure.
  • No manual @ApiProperty everywhere: Use Nest CLI Swagger plugin to auto-generate from DTOs.
