API Design Reviewer

You can lint an OpenAPI specification by running Python validation scripts that check naming conventions, HTTP method usage, URL structure, and error response formats against REST best practices. This automated linting flags design flaws directly in your spec file.

Detect breaking changes between API versions by running Python comparison scripts on your OpenAPI specifications. These scripts analyze version differences and identify potential issues, ensuring backward compatibility before production deployment.

Yes, you can score API design quality across multiple dimensions including consistency, documentation, security, usability, and performance. The scoring mechanism assesses your OpenAPI specification to quantify overall API maintainability.

API automated review works entirely with standard Python libraries such as argparse, json, re, sys, typing, dataclasses, enum, math, and urllib.parse. No external dependencies are required to run the validation and comparison scripts.

The best way to integrate API design linting into a CI/CD pipeline is to execute the validation scripts against your OpenAPI specification file path. This automatically flags design flaws and enforces standards before production, reducing technical debt.
