API Error Contract Builder
Create consistent API errors with RFC 9457 JSON, safe messages and client recovery guidance.
Define a safe public error, then generate the JSON and client recovery plan. Use fictional data. Definitions stay in memory; copy/download includes the reviewed public text you enter.
1/12 error definitions. Loading an example replaces only the selected definition.
Occurrence, retry header and correlation
Instance identifies an occurrence, not the problem class. Replace the fictional traceId at runtime with an opaque identifier; never attach diagnostic context. No telemetry integration runs.
Field validation messages (1/10)
Use /quantity or #/quantity. Messages describe a rule, not the submitted private value. The errors array and rule codes are custom extensions.
Example definitions are fictional and pre-reviewed. Review edits yourself: pattern checks cannot detect every secret or personal value.
What this tool does and why
Before you start
What
Create consistent API errors with RFC 9457 JSON, safe messages and client recovery guidance.
Why
Stable problem types and safe public messages help clients distinguish invalid input, permission failures and recoverable conditions without exposing implementation details.

Model note
This browser-side model explains the inputs you choose. Check an important decision against the real system, brief, or production constraints.

How this tool stays honest
How it works
Define stable problem types, HTTP statuses and public codes. Build a reviewed error catalog with field-validation extensions, retry classifications, idempotency warnings and safe client actions. Generate and export Problem Details locally without connecting an API.
Assumptions
The tool runs in your browser and models the information you provide. It does not know facts outside that model.
Limitations
Bounded RFC 9457 profile and heuristic security review, not middleware, runtime HTTP validation, complete secret detection or security certification. Status choices depend on actual semantics. Retry safety and deduplication require implementation; Problem Details is not mandatory for every API.

What this tool helps you understand
Define stable problem types, HTTP statuses and public codes. Build a reviewed error catalog with field-validation extensions, retry classifications, idempotency warnings and safe client actions. Generate and export Problem Details locally without connecting an API.
When to use it
Before implementing consistent public API failures and client handling.
Try a scenario
Compare Validation Error with Rate Limited and Dependency Failure. Add a second error, choose a unique code, inspect retry safety and export only reviewed public Problem Details.
How to read the result
Resolve FAIL findings before export. Review WARN findings in context, align actual HTTP status and headers with the body, document custom extensions and implement the declared client recovery policy.
Assumptions and limits
Bounded RFC 9457 profile and heuristic security review, not middleware, runtime HTTP validation, complete secret detection or security certification. Status choices depend on actual semantics. Retry safety and deduplication require implementation; Problem Details is not mandatory for every API.
