Jentic Talk #6 is out. Highlights: full-day workshop at #apidays India together with Erik Wilde - "Building AI-Ready APIs with Agent Skills". Plus "jentic-api-improve" skill has breaking changes mode, API Scorecard CLI updates, arazzo2openapi, and more. jentic.com/newsletter/techtalks/techtalk-06

We just opened a PR to add first-class SOAP support to #Arazzo 1.2 RC from @openapis.org. Millions of enterprise SOAP services will soon be reachable from Arazzo workflow steps. Minimal additive changes as SOAP already runs over HTTP, most of Arazzo already worked. PR: github.com/OAI/Arazzo-S...

feat(spec): add SOAP support by frankkilcommins · Pull Request #533 · OAI/Arazzo-Specification

Adds first-class WSDL support to Arazzo 1.2 via a minimal, additive set of changes. Because SOAP operates over HTTP, the vast majority of Arazzo already works for SOAP workflows without modificatio...

The @jentic.bsky.social api-improve #agentskill now has a "mode=full" option, which allows breaking changes to be included in the updated Overlay and #OpenAPI. Every breaking change is flagged explicitly in the changelog via #oasdiff and you remain in control. github.com/jentic/jenti...

Heading to India for the first time to speak at #apidays India 2026. Sat down with the @specmatic.bsky.social & apidays teams ahead of the conference to talk #Arazzo, agentic systems, and why most impressive demos don't make it to production. Full interview here 🇮🇳 confengine.com/conferences/...

One of OpenAPI's unsung heroes is its ability to be extended elegantly. You're gonna love @apievangelist.com's article on extensions. Also in this dispatch: Gin, the HTTP framework for Go, Upyo for sending email, Leaf Wiki, and the HTTP OPTIONS method. apisyouwonthate.com/newsletter/e...

Scoring your API for AI-readiness tells you where you are. But what do you improve, in what order, and how do you know the result is better and non-breaking? Our 𝙟𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙘-𝙖𝙥𝙞-𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙫𝙚 #agentskill does. A Structured loop, non-breaking changes. Three artifacts out: revised spec, Overlay file, changelog.

Just shipped 𝙖𝙥𝙞-𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙫𝙚 at @jentic.bsky.social, an #agentskill that scores your @openapis.org doc, plans non-breaking improvements, and outputs a revised #OpenAPI, an #Overlay file, and a human-readable changelog. Constrained to non-breaking changes. Works with Claude Code and Vercel Skills CLI.

The #dotnet ecosystem just got #Arazzo support. Vincent Biret shipped openapi-arazzo-dotnet - parse, build, serialize, validate Arazzo documents. Available as a library, CLI tool, Docker image, and GitHub Action. 🔗 github.com/BinkyLabs/openapi-arazzo-dotnet

Most of the healthcare APIs I profile describe themselves one endpoint at a time, but nobody actually integrates one endpoint at a time. The real work is a sequence: authenticate, register a patient, kick off a query across the national networks. apievangelist.com/2026/06/29/m...

Validity ≠ usability. A conformant #OpenAPI doc tells you nothing about whether an agent can actually use it. That gap is now measurable and directly from inside your coding agent. jentic.com/blog/agent-check-if-your-apis-are-ai-ready

Let Your Agent Check if Your APIs are AI-Ready

Most engineers know the problem: validity and usability aren't the same thing. The Jentic API Scorecard is now a native agent skill for Claude Code.

We've an evergreen home for the Jentic Tech Talk newsletter. Issue05: API AI-Readiness Scorecard now on GitHub Actions. RFC 10008 closes a 25-year HTTP gap. Bryam Vega's Arazzo deep-dive is worth your time. Plus Erik on MCP through the lens of what you've already built. jentic.com/newsletter/t...

We've just shipped an #agentskill for the @jentic.bsky.social API AI-Readiness Scorecard. Your coding agent can score #OpenAPI docs for AI-readiness itself. Claude Code: /𝘱𝘭𝘶𝘨𝘪𝘯 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘱𝘪-𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘥@𝘫𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤-𝘢𝘱𝘪-𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘥 Vercel: 𝘯𝘱𝘹 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴 𝘢𝘥𝘥 𝘫𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤/𝘫𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤-𝘢𝘱𝘪-𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘥 2-minute walkthrough 👇

Signal #10 in #TheWeeklySignal series: Structural Integrity An #agent doesn't just parse an #OpenAPI doc, it reasons over it. Structural integrity measures whether the surface shapes and schema model makes agent reasoning and planning possible. Three APIs. Very different answers. 👇

Signal #9 in #TheWeeklySignal series: Complexity Comfort Before an agent calls an API, it plans. The bigger and deeper the surface, the harder that planning problem gets. Three APIs. Very different answers on how navigable their surface actually is. 👇 Powered by: github.com/jentic/jenti...

Signal #8 in #TheWeeklySignal series: Summary Coverage Before processing #OpenAPI parameters, schemas, or examples, an AI agent reads the `summary` field. That one-liner is the operation's headline. Three APIs. Very different answers on whether it exists at all. 👇

Signal #7 in #TheWeeklySignal series from @jentic.bsky.social: Example Validity Previously, signal #3 asked: do your APIs have examples? Most don't. This week: the ones that do — are they correct? Three APIs, very different answers. 👇

Signal #6 in #TheWeeklySignal series: Authentication Strength An agent doesn't just need to know auth is required. It needs to understand how to authenticate safely: scoped, renewable, machine-readable. Does your OpenAPI description say enough? Three APIs. Very different answers. 👇

Arazzo Specification v1.1.0 is out from the @openapis.org 🚀 The headline: #AsyncAPI support. For the first time, #Arazzo workflows span both synchronous and async #APIs in a single machine-readable document. 🧵

Signal #5 in #TheWeeklySignal series: Response Coverage When an agent calls your API, it needs to understand what comes back. Three examples, very different results. 👇 This week's question: beyond the success case, how much of your API's response landscape have you actually documented?

As #AI agents gain more capabilities, everyone's paying much closer attention to their API estate. But how do you ensure the #APIs you deliver actually cater for agentic consumers? Here's Erik Wilde's top tip for delivering AI-ready APIs

Signal #4 in #TheWeeklySignal series: OperationId Quality An agent doesn't read paths and infer intent. It looks for operationIds , the stable names tool-calling systems, #Arazzo workflows, and SDK generators depend on. Three APIs. Very different results. 👇

Speaking at #APIDays / Future of Software Technologies NYC next week on: 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗔𝗣𝗜: 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝗰𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗲 I’ll explore Arazzo 1.1.0, including AsyncAPI support. If you’re around NYC and want to chat OpenAPI/Arazzo, or tooling at @jentic.bsky.social, come say hello 👋

Signal #3 in The Weekly Signal series: Example Density A schema tells you the shape. An example shows you what the data actually means. Using @jentic.bsky.social API AI-Readiness Framework Three APIs. Very different results. 👇

It's very nice to be keynoting at APIOps Helsinki on: 𝘼𝙋𝙄𝙊𝙥𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘼𝙜𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝘼𝙄 𝘼𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 The thesis: If an agent can call APIs, trigger workflows, or decide what to call, then action-layer control is the capability & security boundary, not the prompt. #apiopshelsinki2026 #AIAgents #OpenAPI #Arazzo

Most #APIs weren't designed for autonomous agents. On May 23rd, join Erik & I for a "Designing AI-ready APIs" masterclass. We'll work through the role #OpenAPI, #Overlay & #Arazzo play in improving AI-readiness for APIs. Learn more & Register: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/designing-...

Signal #2 in The Weekly Signal series: Error Standardisation #RFC9457 First #API interactions rarely start clean. The question isn’t “did it fail?”, it’s, "Did the error tell you enough to recover?" Three APIs. Very different results. 👇

Nice to be part of this @infoworld.bsky.social feature by @doerrfeldbill.bsky.social on building enterprise-grade agentic systems. Hot take: Determine what's adaptive vs. deterministic, and codify the latter. Not everything needs an LLM in the loop. www.infoworld.com/article/4154...
