OpenAPI Documentation
Generate interactive API documentation from OpenAPI and Swagger specifications. Keep your API docs always up to date with your endpoints.

Overview
OpenAPI (formerly Swagger) specifications describe your REST API in a machine-readable format that can generate interactive documentation, client SDKs, and server stubs. AI agents can both generate OpenAPI specs from your existing code and keep them updated as your API evolves.
Your AI agent can analyze your route handlers, extract request/response schemas, and produce a complete OpenAPI 3.0 specification. When you add or modify endpoints, the agent updates the spec accordingly. Tools like Swagger UI or Redoc then render this spec as beautiful, interactive documentation that developers can try out directly in the browser.
The reverse flow is equally powerful: given an OpenAPI spec, your agent can generate type-safe API client code, request validation middleware, and test fixtures. This ensures that your API contract, documentation, and implementation stay perfectly aligned.
