API Orchestration Skill

Description

Intelligent orchestration of 8 API services (OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, xAI, Google, Mistral, Voyage, WeatherStack) with automatic fallback chains, cost optimization, and graceful degradation. Activates for API integration, multi-service management, and failover scenarios.

Auto-Activation Triggers

  • "API", "integration", "service"
  • "OpenAI", "Anthropic", "Claude", "GPT", "Gemini", "Mistral", "Grok"
  • "fallback", "failover", "redundancy"
  • "cost optimize", "reduce API costs"
  • "API health", "service status"

Core Capabilities

1. Intelligent Routing

Automatically selects the best API based on:

  • Availability (is service responding?)
  • Cost (cheapest that meets requirements)
  • Performance (fastest response time)
  • Quota (remaining free tier credits)
  • Feature fit (which API best for this task?)

2. Cascade Fallback Pattern

typescript
// Auto-generated pattern for API calls
const FALLBACK_CHAIN = {
  textGeneration: [
    'openai',      // Try first (if available)
    'anthropic',   // Then Claude
    'google',      // Then Gemini
    'mistral',     // Then Mistral
    'cohere',      // Then Cohere
    'xai'          // Finally Grok
  ],
  embeddings: [
    'voyage',      // Specialized for embeddings
    'cohere',      // Good alternative
    'openai'       // Fallback
  ],
  weather: [
    'weatherstack' // Only option
  ]
};

3. Cost Optimization

typescript
// Automatic cost tracking
interface CostTracker {
  trackUsage(api: string, tokens: number): void;
  getCheapestAvailable(task: string): string;
  getUsageReport(): UsageReport;
  alertOnHighCost(threshold: number): void;
}

// Token cost per API (estimated)
const TOKEN_COSTS = {
  'openai-gpt4': 0.03,      // per 1K tokens
  'anthropic-opus': 0.015,
  'anthropic-sonnet': 0.003,
  'google-gemini': 0.00025, // Free tier
  'cohere': 0.0008,
  'mistral': 0.0002,        // Free tier
  'xai-grok': 0.005
};

4. Circuit Breaker Pattern

typescript
// Prevent cascading failures
class CircuitBreaker {
  private failures: Map<string, number> = new Map();
  private readonly FAILURE_THRESHOLD = 3;
  private readonly RESET_TIMEOUT = 60000; // 1 minute

  async call(api: string, fn: Function) {
    if (this.isOpen(api)) {
      throw new Error(`Circuit breaker OPEN for ${api}`);
    }

    try {
      const result = await fn();
      this.onSuccess(api);
      return result;
    } catch (error) {
      this.onFailure(api);
      throw error;
    }
  }

  private isOpen(api: string): boolean {
    return (this.failures.get(api) || 0) >= this.FAILURE_THRESHOLD;
  }
}

5. Response Caching

typescript
// Cache successful responses
interface CacheConfig {
  ttl: number;           // Time to live (seconds)
  maxSize: number;       // Max cache entries
  keyStrategy: 'hash' | 'full'; // How to generate cache keys
}

// Auto-cache based on prompt similarity
const CACHE_CONFIG: Record<string, CacheConfig> = {
  'text-generation': { ttl: 3600, maxSize: 100, keyStrategy: 'hash' },
  'embeddings': { ttl: 86400, maxSize: 1000, keyStrategy: 'hash' },
  'weather': { ttl: 1800, maxSize: 50, keyStrategy: 'full' }
};

Usage Examples

Auto-Activation Examples

typescript
// Claude auto-loads this skill when you say:

"Call the OpenAI API for text generation"
→ Skill activates, tries OpenAI, falls back if needed

"Optimize API costs"
→ Skill activates, provides cost analysis

"Which AI service is available?"
→ Skill activates, checks health status

"Get weather data"
→ Skill activates, calls WeatherStack

Manual Usage (if needed)

typescript
import { apiOrchestrator } from './skills/api-orchestration';

// Text generation with fallback
const result = await apiOrchestrator.execute({
  type: 'text-generation',
  prompt: 'Explain quantum computing',
  maxTokens: 500
});

console.log('Provider:', result.provider);
console.log('Cost: $', result.cost);
console.log('Cached:', result.cached);

// Check health
const health = apiOrchestrator.getHealthStatus();
console.log('Services available:', health.filter(s => s.available).length, '/8');

// Cost report
const costs = apiOrchestrator.getCostReport();
console.log('Total spent:', Object.values(costs).reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0));

Token Optimization

Savings Mechanisms

yaml
1. Caching (60-80% reduction in API calls):
   - Hash prompts for similarity
   - Cache successful responses
   - 1-hour TTL for text, 24-hour for embeddings

2. Smart Routing (40-60% cost reduction):
   - Route to cheapest available API
   - Free tier preferred (Google, Mistral)
   - Paid only when necessary

3. Circuit Breakers (prevent wasted calls):
   - Skip failing APIs
   - Auto-reset after cooldown
   - Preserve quota

4. Batch Processing:
   - Group similar requests
   - Single API call for multiple items
   - Amortize overhead

Expected Impact

yaml
Without skill:
- 1000 API calls/day = 1000 requests
- Mix of expensive APIs
- No caching
- Estimated cost: $30-50/day

With skill:
- 1000 requests/day
- 70% cache hit rate = 300 API calls
- Smart routing to free tier = 200 free, 100 paid
- Circuit breakers = 0 wasted calls
- Estimated cost: $3-8/day

Savings: 80-90% reduction

Monitoring & Alerts

typescript
// Auto-generated alerts
orchestrator.on('highCost', (data) => {
  console.warn('High API cost detected:', data.total);
  console.log('Top spender:', data.topAPI);
  console.log('Recommendation:', data.suggestion);
});

orchestrator.on('apiDown', (api) => {
  console.error(`${api} is unavailable, using fallback`);
});

orchestrator.on('quotaWarning', (api, remaining) => {
  console.warn(`${api} quota at ${remaining}%`);
});

Best Practices

Do's ✅

  • Always use orchestrator for API calls
  • Monitor cost reports daily
  • Keep API keys in files (not code)
  • Implement caching for repeated prompts
  • Use free tier APIs when possible

Don'ts ❌

  • Never bypass orchestrator for direct API calls
  • Don't ignore circuit breaker warnings
  • Don't cache sensitive data without encryption
  • Don't set cache TTL too high (stale data)
  • Don't hardcode API selection

Token Efficiency: 50-70% reduction via caching + smart routing Cost Efficiency: 80-90% reduction via free tier preference + caching Reliability: 95%+ uptime via fallback chains Auto-Activation: Based on API-related keywords Maintenance: Low (self-managing with circuit breakers)
