Recommended Next Steps
- Strengthen: Document rate limits, quota behavior, 429 responses, and Retry-After guidance.
- Document idempotency keys, test mode, dry runs, and safe retry semantics for agents.
Strengths
- Documentation clarity
- Machine-readable specification (OpenAPI/Swagger)
- Authentication model clarity
- Error handling and status codes
- Sandbox / test-mode availability
- Webhook / event support
- Commercial trust (status, SLA, compliance)
- Developer experience (SDKs, quickstart, CLI)
Risks
- Rate-limit / quota behavior signal is partial; clearer documentation recommended.
- Agent-safe workflow primitives (idempotency, retries) signal not detected in docs.
