SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Ensures API specifications (OpenAPI/Swagger) meet Gate 1 quality standards, preventing ambiguous or non-compliant API definitions from progressing in development and release workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces a predefined set of quality checks on API specs (e.g., no describe operations, no envelope wrappers, no nullable properties)
  • Detects structural and stylistic issues to improve API consistency and maintainability
  • Provides actionable guidance for remediation to bring specs into compliance across multiple endpoints

Quick Start

Run the gate-1-api-specification check against your api.yml to validate API spec quality and compliance.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate my OpenAPI specification for consistency and structural quality?▼

OpenAPI specification validation is automated by enforcing Gate 1 quality checks on a properly formatted api.yml. It detects structural and stylistic issues like inconsistent schema usage to improve API maintainability.

What specific OpenAPI constraints are checked during API spec linting?▼

API spec linting checks for constraints including no describe operations, no error responses, no nullable fields, no envelope wrappers, and consistent schema usage across endpoints to ensure compliance.

Do I need yq and grep to run OpenAPI quality checks on my yaml file?▼

Yes, validating an api.yml requires shell tooling such as grep and yq to perform the automated checks. These tools parse the YAML structure to enforce Gate 1 quality standards.

How do I prevent non-compliant API definitions from progressing in my development workflow?▼

Preventing non-compliant API definitions from progressing requires automated Gate 1 validation of your OpenAPI specs. This process stops ambiguous api.yml files from moving forward in release workflows.

What is the best way to enforce consistent schema usage across multiple API endpoints?▼

Enforcing consistent schema usage across endpoints is best achieved by automating OpenAPI specification validation. Applying Gate 1 checks to your api.yml detects structural inconsistencies and provides actionable remediation guidance.
