API reference docs are generated by processing an OpenAPI or GraphQL SDL contract to produce exact endpoint pages mapping 1:1 to the source. This ensures fidelity and prevents drift by including method, path, parameters, and schemas.

Preventing API documentation drift is achieved by mirroring the source specification exactly for every endpoint. This generates precise reference pages that map 1:1 to the contract, ensuring strict fidelity and preventing inconsistencies.

Automated reference generation supports GraphQL SDL endpoints by applying the process to the SDL contract. It produces a reusable reference structure with request/response schemas and a single runnable example per endpoint.

API reference documentation includes authentication and pagination details alongside error tables and versioning notes. These elements ensure developer-ready reference pages that enable curl/SDK examples without guessing.

Creating developer-ready API docs with runnable curl examples involves mapping the API contract exactly into reference pages. This yields a single runnable example per endpoint, allowing developers to execute requests without guessing parameters.
