What openapi-to-application-go does

This plugin scaffolds Go backend applications using OpenAPI specifications as the source of truth. It generates route handlers and sets up middleware while following standard Go conventions for REST APIs.

The package includes the openapi-to-application agent and the /openapi-to-application-go:openapi-to-application-code slash command. You run it through the Copilot CLI.

Use it if your team follows an API-first workflow and targets Go. Without an OpenAPI schema file, this tool has little to offer.

What it helps with

  • generate Go project scaffolding from OpenAPI specifications
  • create REST API handlers based on API schema contracts
  • configure middleware and routing for new Go services

Example prompts for the agent

  • /openapi-to-application-go:openapi-to-application-code using api/openapi.yaml
  • Use openapi-to-application agent to generate a Go service from openapi.json
