BurgerAPI CLI v0.9.9 Released

Creator of BurgerAPI Framework

BurgerAPI CLI v0.9.9 introduces Agent Skills — structured, AI-readable documentation that replaces the legacy .llm-context files. Skills follow the agentskills.io open standard and are automatically discovered by Cursor, Claude Code, OpenCode, Copilot, and Codex.

What's New in CLI v0.9.9

  • burger-api skills — New command family with install [name], list, and available subcommands
  • Skills prompt — New "Add AI agent skills?" question during burger-api create (default: yes)
  • Structured context — Skills install to .agents/skills/burger-api/ with SKILL.md and reference files
  • Compatible out of the box — Works with Cursor, Claude Code, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, and any tool supporting the agentskills.io standard
  • .llm-context no longer auto-installed — The CLI no longer copies ecosystem/.llm-context/ into new projects

Agent Skills: Smarter AI Context

Agent Skills replace the flat .llm-context text files with a structured format that AI assistants understand natively. Each skill consists of:

  • SKILL.md — Main file with YAML frontmatter (name, description, version) and progressive overview
  • references/ — Detailed reference docs for routing, validation, middleware, CLI, and OpenAPI

The key difference: instead of manually attaching files to your prompts, you install a skill once and your agent discovers it automatically from .agents/skills/.

CLI Commands

# Install the default burger-api skill
burger-api skills install

# List installed skills
burger-api skills list

# Browse available skills from the ecosystem
burger-api skills available

# Install during project creation (new prompt)
burger-api create my-api
# Answer Yes to "Add AI agent skills?"

Migration from .llm-context

Projects created before v0.9.9 may have an ecosystem/.llm-context/ folder. To adopt the new format:

burger-api skills install

The old .llm-context folder can be safely removed. See the Agent Skills documentation for details.
