ALAPI
Overview
Use this skill to work against the full ALAPI OpenAPI catalog without hand-parsing the schema each time. The skill bundles the raw OpenAPI source, a generated endpoint catalog, an auth guide, and a reusable request script.
Workflow
- Confirm whether
ALAPI_TOKENis available. - If the token is missing, tell the user to request one from
https://apifox.com/apihub/, then ask them to send it back. - After the user sends the token, persist it to the active shell profile, export it in the current session, and avoid echoing it back in logs.
- Use
references/intent-router.mdfirst to map a user request to the most likely endpoint with minimal context cost. - Open
references/api-catalog.mdonly for the exact endpoint you selected. - Use
scripts/alapi_request.pyfor real calls instead of rewriting HTTP boilerplate. - If the OpenAPI source changes, replace
references/openapi-source.jsonand rerunscripts/generate_references.py.
Authentication
- ALAPI uses header auth:
token: $ALAPI_TOKEN - All endpoints in the bundled OpenAPI spec use
POST - All endpoints use
application/jsonrequest bodies - Base URL:
https://v3.alapi.cn
Token Handling
Run printenv ALAPI_TOKEN first.
If the token is missing:
- Tell the user to申请或管理 ALAPI token at
https://apifox.com/apihub/ - Ask the user to send the token
- After receiving it, persist it based on the active shell:
zsh: appendexport ALAPI_TOKEN='...'to~/.zshrcbash: appendexport ALAPI_TOKEN='...'to~/.bashrc
- Also export it in the current shell before making API calls
Do not invent or reuse placeholder tokens for real requests.

Response Discipline
When answering a user with this skill:
- State the selected endpoint path explicitly
- Explain why that endpoint matches the request
- Show the required JSON body fields
- Mention that auth is via
ALAPI_TOKEN - Summarize the API response instead of dumping raw JSON unless the user asks for the full payload
