Design a public GraphQL API for third-party developers - the GraphQL-or-not gate, schema conventions (naming, nullability, Node interface, input/payload types), Relay cursor-connection pagination, union/interface error result types, depth and complexity ceilings as design decisions, the federation trust boundary (only the router is ever public), and a persisted-query policy that allowlists first-party traffic only. Use whenever the user mentions GraphQL, a public schema, Relay connections, query depth limits, persisted queries, federation, or GraphQL vs REST - even if they never say "GraphQL API design". Design layer only. Do NOT use for a REST surface review - use samber/developer-platform-skills@public-api-design-review instead.
