API Integration Surface Strategy

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.
