A comprehensive guide covering best practices for designing developer-friendly REST APIs. Learn proper resource naming conventions (nouns, plural, kebab-case), effective use of HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE), and semantic status codes (4xx, 5xx). The guide also details advanced topics like cursor-based pagination, field filtering, query parameter usage, and robust error handling formats.

This skill helps translate vague or descriptive language used in questions about historical events, figures, or cultures into specific, proper historical terms or nouns. It moves beyond literal search queries by recognizing underlying concepts (e.g., translating 'exaggerate facts about a region' to 'tall tales'). It is particularly effective for researching global history, providing crucial techniques for narrowing down searches related to South Asian, Middle Eastern, and African contexts where standard Western sources might be insufficient.
