Guidelines for adding or changing routes in the WooCommerce Store API under /wc/store/v1, covering authentication, REST design, schemas and variations.
- Adding a new endpoint under the Store API
- SKILL.md covers When to use this skill, Topics, Key principles and Reference files
- Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
- Changing the response schema or status codes of an existing Store API route
What it does
The Store API is the public REST surface used by the Cart, Checkout and Mini-Cart blocks and by external integrations, with conventions separate from the older admin REST API. The skill applies to adding a route, changing a response shape, status codes or argument schema, designing a schema for a new resource and wiring a block to an endpoint. It builds on two sibling skills for general PHP conventions and performance patterns.
Its key principles are that schemas are the public contract and a route must return exactly what its schema declares, that routes changing per-user state through cookies should extend `AbstractCartRoute`, which enforces nonces, while `AbstractRoute` alone suits read-only routes or those with their own authentication, that GET stays free of side effects, that the server is authoritative on variation identity instead of trusting client attribute payloads, and that dead schema fields are not shipped. Five reference files cover authentication, REST conventions, schema design, variation handling and performance.
When your agent uses it
- Adding a new endpoint under the Store API
- Changing the response schema or status codes of an existing Store API route
- Choosing the right abstract route class and nonce handling for a mutating endpoint
Example prompts
- “Add a Store API route that returns a customer's saved shipping options and define its schema.”
- “This cart route changes state on POST, make sure it enforces nonces correctly.”
- “Align the response of this endpoint with its declared schema and remove the unused field.”
Requirements
- A WooCommerce checkout with the Store API source
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b41b964. 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
WooCommerce Store API Routes loads about 932 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 336 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 336 words (~932 tokens).
“The Store API is the public REST surface used by Woo blocks (Cart, Checkout, Mini-Cart) and external integrations. It lives under /wc/store/v1/* and has its own conventions distinct from the older /wc/v3/* admin REST API.”
