Decide which integration surfaces a platform offers external developers and AI agents - REST, GraphQL, gRPC, SQL access, bulk data sharing, webhooks, SDKs, CLI, MCP, embedded components - and in what build order, sequenced by reversal cost and audience rather than novelty. Use whenever the user mentions which API to build first, adding a GraphQL or MCP layer, an integration-surface roadmap, API-first vs embedded-first, or a missing surface blocking deals - even if they never say "integration surface". Umbrella strategy only - once a surface is chosen, per-surface design belongs to siblings such as samber/developer-platform-skills@webhook-platform-design and samber/developer-platform-skills@sdk-portfolio-strategy.

Add to SourceWeftYou will be asked to sign in first, then taken straight to this skill.
Ask your agent to install it
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent that can run commands — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this skill's install guide, shows you its source, license and scripts, and installs it with the SourceWeft CLI once you agree.
Read https://sourceweft.com/skills/gh-samber-developer-platform-skills-api-integration-surface-strategy/install.md and install the skill it describes. Before installing, show me its source, license and whether it ships scripts, and wait for my OK. Ask me before changing anything else on my machine.Install it yourself from a terminal
For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other local agents. The SourceWeft CLI fetches the skill from its source repository at the commit scanned here, and verifies every file against the hashes recorded when the skill was scanned. If anything differs, nothing is written.
npx @sourceweft/cli skills install @samber/api-integration-surface-strategyAdd --agent claude-code, codex, cursor or universal to choose which agent gets it (Claude Code by default).
Upstream installer — not verified by SourceWeft
The open-source skills installer fetches the same pinned commit, but does not check the files against the hashes SourceWeft recorded.
