FAQ
- Which sites should publish OpenAPI?
- Sites with first-party API or developer surfaces should make OpenAPI or Swagger metadata discoverable from public docs or stable paths so agents can reason about integrations.
- Does missing OpenAPI penalize non-API websites?
- The full scan only scores OpenAPI strongly when shallow evidence indicates a first-party API or developer surface, or when OpenAPI-style discovery paths are published.
- Does this checker validate every operation?
- No. It focuses on public discoverability, response status, parseability, docs linkage, and whether the schema is useful enough for agent-readiness triage.
- What makes OpenAPI more agent-ready?
- Clear summaries, operation IDs, schemas, auth descriptions, error responses, examples, and links from public docs help agents understand capabilities before any API call.
