# Apollo Local Dev Loop

## Overview
Set up efficient local development workflow for Apollo.io integrations with proper environment management, testing, and debugging.

## Prerequisites
- Completed `apollo-install-auth` setup
- Node.js 18+ or Python 3.10+
- Git repository initialized

## Instructions
Follow these high-level steps to implement apollo-local-dev-loop:

1. Review the prerequisites and ensure your environment is configured
2. Follow the detailed implementation guide for step-by-step code examples
3. Validate your implementation against the output checklist below

For full implementation details, load: `Read(plugins/saas-packs/apollo-pack/skills/apollo-local-dev-loop/references/implementation-guide.md)`

## Output
- Environment file structure (.env, .env.example)
- Development client with logging interceptors
- Mock server for testing without API calls
- npm scripts for development workflow
- Quota monitoring utility

## Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Missing API Key | .env not loaded | Run `source .env` or use dotenv |
| Mock Not Working | MSW not configured | Ensure setupServer is called |
| Rate Limited in Dev | Too many test calls | Use mock server for tests |
| Stale Credentials | Key rotated | Update .env with new key |

## Resources
- [MSW (Mock Service Worker)](https://mswjs.io/)
- [Vitest Testing Framework](https://vitest.dev/)
- [dotenv Documentation](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv)

## Next Steps
Proceed to `apollo-sdk-patterns` for production-ready code patterns.

## Examples

**Basic usage**: Apply apollo local dev loop to a standard project setup with default configuration options.

**Advanced scenario**: Customize apollo local dev loop for production environments with multiple constraints and team-specific requirements.
