How shieldfy/api-security-checklist works
This repository is a security checklist for people designing, testing, and releasing APIs, not an API implementation. The user workflow is to consult the checklist and apply its guidance across API safeguards, delivery and monitoring, and advanced controls. The README documents these sections but no executable modules or interactions; the graph therefore represents documented guidance only, not a runtime pipeline.
