OpenAI API OpenAPI spec score

Octri scored the public spec at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/openai-openapi/master/openapi.yaml for what a code generator can do with it. This is a reading of the document, not a grade of the API.

Where the points went

Every rule, heaviest first, with what it cost this document, how much of the surface it touched, and where. The rule id links to what that rule checks.

Packaging, outside the score

This generates one package with 360 operations and 2095 models. Frontend consumers download all of it to call any of it, and low-spec machines pay for it in IDE and build time. The largest groups are `Agents` (37), `Projects` (24), `Assistants` (23), and each is a candidate for its own project.

What 7.8 means for an SDK

A mixed reading, and the three rules that decide most of it.

The client compiles and works. Callers will feel the soft spots: a few methods that return an untyped value, arguments with no hint on them, a namespace or two named after a path segment rather than a resource.

Three rules carry six of the 10 points between them. On this document they took 0.84.

What to change first

The 6 heaviest of 7 rules that deducted.

  1. 0.4 lost

    Successful responses declare a schema

    Give the success response a schema, or a $ref to one in components. A 204 needs nothing.

    Inside Octri this one has a one-click fix.

  2. 0.4 lost

    Shared models live in components and are $ref'd

    Move the shape into components.schemas once and $ref it from each operation that returns or accepts it.

  3. 0.4 lost

    operationIds read as method names

    Name the id for the action, not the route. The audit suggests one per operation and can apply it.

    Inside Octri this one has a one-click fix.

  4. 0.2 lost

    Request bodies are documented

    Describe the body, or the fields inside it. Field-level prose is the one that reaches the SDK's arguments.

    Inside Octri this one has a one-click fix.

  5. 0.2 lost

    Failure responses are declared

    Declare the failures you actually return, or one `default` response carrying your error shape.

  6. 0.3 lost

    Operations are tagged

    Tag every operation. Tags are what decide whether a caller writes `client.invoices.list()` or `client.misc.list()`.

    Inside Octri this one has a one-click fix.

The spec at raw.githubusercontent.com is public. Octri keeps the `info` block, the score, and up to five sample finding locations per rule. The document itself is not stored and is not served from here. The audit predicts what an SDK generator can do with the description; it is not a security review, an uptime measurement or a critique of the API’s design.
