breaking-change-detector

Breaking change detection identifies backward-incompatible modifications to public APIs, function signatures, and endpoints by comparing versions and flagging removals, renames, and format changes. Run analysis on proposed changes before deployment to prevent production failures and customer impact.

Breaking changes include removal or renaming of parameters and methods, alterations to response formats, endpoint modifications, and schema changes. The detector recognizes these as incompatible with existing client code and flags them for migration planning.

Yes, the breaking change detector outputs structured assessments with suggested migration paths for each incompatible change, helping you plan transition strategies and communicate upgrades to users before deployment.

Describe your proposed API modifications—parameter changes, endpoint restructuring, or schema updates—and request breaking change analysis. The detector identifies which changes break compatibility and recommends migration approaches.

Yes, the detector covers schema migrations alongside API and function signature changes, identifying incompatibilities in data structure modifications that would impact downstream systems and clients.
