Use when working with Stripe SDK, API Versioning, Webhook Testing, TypeScript.\ntriggers:\n  - upgrade stripe\n  - stripe sdk\n  - api versioning\n---\n\n# Stripe API Version & SDK Zero-Regression Upgrade Playbook\n\n## 1. When to Use This Skill\nLoad `skill-upgrade-stripe` whenever an engineering or operations task involves **Stripe SDK, API Versioning, Webhook Testing, TypeScript**. Specifically:\n- Safely upgrade Stripe API versions (`2026-xx-xx`) and server SDKs: inspect breaking changelog diffs, pin webhook endpoint versions, and run sandbox replay tests.\n- Designing, reviewing, or debugging production configurations without guesswork or deprecated flags.\n- Running deterministic pre-flight and post-execution verification checks before reporting completion.\n\n## 2. Prerequisites & Required Environment\n- **Target Stack:** Stripe SDK, API Versioning, Webhook Testing, TypeScript\n- **Permissions:** Read-only inspection by default; ask for explicit confirmation before executing destructive mutations or production deployments.\n- **Reference Repository:** `https://docs.stripe.com/upgrades`\n\n## 3. Step-by-Step Execution Playbook\n1. **Context & Configuration Discovery:**\n   Inspect existing project manifests (`package.json`, `wrangler.jsonc`, schema files, or environment declarations) before proposing changes. Never overwrite existing bindings or credentials blindly.\n2. **Deterministic Implementation:**\n   Apply the canonical patterns for **Stripe SDK**:\n   - Enforce strict schema/type validation at every external boundary.\n   - Include explicit error handling, structured logging, and idempotency keys on all mutating calls.\n   - Keep secrets in environment variables or secret stores—never hardcode tokens in source files.\n3. **Verification & Regression Gate:**\n   Run the verification commands below and inspect both exit codes and output payloads before marking the task complete.\n\n## 4. Reference Commands & CLI Workflow\n```bash\nnpm i stripe@latest\nstripe listen --latest\n```\n\n## 5. Edge Cases & Anti-Hallucination Guardrails\n- **Zero Unverified Claims:** Never claim a deployment, migration, or API call succeeded without inspecting the command output or HTTP status code.\n- **Rollback Readiness:** Always record the previous state or migration version so changes can be reverted cleanly if downstream health checks fail.\n",
  "starter_prompt": "Load the Stripe API Version & SDK Zero-Regression Upgrade Playbook (skill-upgrade-stripe) playbook. First inspect our current configuration and codebase for Stripe SDK, API Versioning, Webhook Testing, TypeScript. Then propose a concrete, step-by-step implementation plan following the skill-upgrade-stripe guardrails, run the non-destructive verification commands (npm i stripe@latest), and summarize any findings, risks, or required environment variables before making production changes.",
