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

Analyze chemical processes systematically to identify hazards, assess risks, and generate safety recommendations. You can perform HAZOP analyses, evaluate compliance with industry standards, conduct root-cause analysis of incidents, and develop emergency response procedures. The skill guides you through structured safety reviews that reduce the likelihood of accidents and regulatory violations.
When a user uploads a file to Claude, you can intelligently detect its type and read it using the appropriate method. Instead of blindly running cat on binary files or loading massive CSVs into context, this skill routes each file type to the right tool, reading only what's needed to answer the user's question. You'll extract text from PDFs, parse structured data from CSVs and JSON, process images, and decompress archives—all without wasting context or producing garbage output.
