Guide for upgrading Stripe API versions and SDKs
upgrade-stripe is a reusable AI skill focused on a specific workflow. description: Guide for upgrading Stripe API versions and SDKs
The skill packages instructions, conventions, and task-specific guidance so an agent can execute the job more consistently. The latest Stripe API version is 2026-04-22.dahlia - use this version when upgrading unless the user specifies a different target version. This guide covers upgrading Stripe API versions, server-side SDKs, Stripe.js, and mobile SDKs. Stripe uses date-based API versions (e.g., `2026-04-22.dahlia`, `2025-08-27.basil`, `2024-12-18.acacia`). Your account’s API version determines request/response behavior.
In practice, this skill is best suited for users who need repeatable execution with fewer setup steps and less ambiguity. **Backward-Compatible Changes** (don’t require code updates): - New optional request parameters - New properties in existing responses - Changes to opaque string lengths (e.g., object IDs)
upgrade-stripe helps agents follow a focused workflow described in the source documentation, reducing ambiguity and keeping execution aligned with the intended task.
Use it when the task matches the workflow, domain, or operating rules described in the skill documentation, especially when consistent execution matters.
The skill is constrained by the quality and scope of its source instructions. If the underlying documentation is incomplete, the agent may still need extra context or manual validation.
