API Reliability Checklist
A lightweight review for teams that need to slow the firefighting down and figure out what deserves attention first.
- Map the slowest endpoints before changing code.
- Check retries, timeouts, and third-party dependencies before blaming the application layer.
- Review payload shape, pagination, and caching assumptions.
- Look for unclear API contracts that create avoidable client breakage.
- Triage observability gaps before you try to fix the symptom in production.
- Decide what must be stabilised now versus what can be reworked later.
