openapi-critical-rules

Validate your OpenAPI spec by enforcing 12 critical rules that check root-level servers and security, singular noun naming for tags and schemas, and operationId alignment to prevent immediate task failure.

Critical OpenAPI lint rules enforce root-level security, singular noun naming for tags, operationId alignment, and 200/201 response compliance to audit api.yml and prevent regression during CI workflows.

Your OpenAPI specification fails quality checks due to inconsistent naming, misconfiguration at the root level, and unsafe response definitions, which 12 critical validation rules are designed to catch and enforce.

Yes, you can validate parameter reuse and camelCase property naming for consistent client generation, as these specific naming conventions are included within the 12 critical OpenAPI rules enforced during spec audits.

No, this OpenAPI validation requires no external dependencies to run, allowing you to directly audit your api.yml file against the 12 critical rules during design reviews or CI checks.

The best way to ensure 200/201 response compliance is applying the 12 critical OpenAPI rules, which validate response codes alongside root-level security and operationId alignment for production-ready API definitions.
