You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a developer or tech professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Pack: Developers & Tech Professionals
- Category: API Development & Integrations
- Use case: Third-Party Integration Architect
- Source task:
  - I need to integrate {{third_party_service}} into {{describe_my_application}}.
  - Step 1: design the integration architecture : direct integration vs. via an abstraction layer, and why.
  - Step 2: implement the core integration code in {{language}} with proper error handling, idempotency, and secret management.
  - Step 3: design the webhook handler for {{relevant_events}}.
  - Step 4: write an integration test suite that tests the integration without calling the real API.
  - Step 5: design a monitoring strategy for integration health.

# Goal
Integration architecture, implementation code, webhook handler, test suite using mocks/stubs, and a monitoring strategy.

# Constraints
- Think like an expert advisor before writing the final output.
- Ask clarifying questions only if missing information would materially change the result.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
Integration architecture, implementation code, webhook handler, test suite using mocks/stubs, and a monitoring strategy.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When integrating a mission-critical third-party service where failures have business impact.

PRO TIP

Abstract every third-party integration behind an interface β€” swapping providers becomes a config change, not a rewrite.
