Retellai's agent discovery posture is a genuine strength — partners and agents can find your APIs without friction. However, the API contract itself is the critical weak point: missing schema depth, incomplete security hygiene, and absent examples mean partners and their AI agents are building against an underspecified surface, increasing integration failure and support burden.
API DesignA clean, typed, well-governed API contract agents can reason about0 pass0 warn3 fail40F
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| fail | Schema coverage & depthvia sdk | 0/25 | no .d.ts found. Investigated: sdk 0%. | Typed, complete request/response schemas are what make agent function-calling possible. |
| fail | Security & governance hygienevia wellknown | 0/15 | No security.txt at /.well-known/security.txt or /security.txt. Investigated: wellknown 0%. | No leaked secrets, no critical lint violations, no OWASP API Top-10 spec smells, and a published vulnerability-disclosure channel. |
| fail | Example coveragevia docs | 0/10 | No detectable code samples across 20 sampled docs pages. Investigated: docs 0%, sdk 0%. | Examples carry shape semantics schemas under-specify — for humans and agents alike. |
| na | Machine-readable, versioned contract | —/25 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | A current OpenAPI version with a declared versioning scheme lets agents reason about the contract. |
| na | Auth declared & discoverable | —/25 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | Agents can only authenticate when auth is declared, scoped, and discoverable. |
Developer ExperienceThe context both developers and agents need to integrate fast — onboarding, code samples, complete descriptions and worked examples2 pass1 warn1 fail71B
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Self-service developer portalvia docs | 29/29 | Self-service signup at https://www.retellai.com/sign-up; no free tier or sandbox language detected. Investigated: docs 100%. | Self-serve key/account creation is the fast first call for partners, with no sales gate. |
| pass | Changelog publishedvia sdk | 13/13 | Newest official SDK activity 0 day(s) ago. Investigated: sdk 100%. | A published changelog lets partners track changes without surprise. |
| warn | Quickstart presentvia docs | 12.5/25 | Quickstart page reachable (1 variants scanned starting at https://docs.retellai.com/get-started/quick-start) but no runnable code sample detected in HTML or .md variant. Investigated: docs 50%. | A quickstart is the fastest path from landing page to first successful call. |
| fail | Code samples in docsvia docs | 0/18 | No detectable code samples across 20 sampled docs pages. Investigated: docs 0%. | Multi-language samples shorten time-to-first-call. |
| na | Description completeness | —/15 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | Complete descriptions are the context humans and agents need to use endpoints. |
Agent DiscoveryPartners and their agents can find your APIs — llms.txt, registries, crawlable and reachable docs3 pass1 warn0 fail93A+
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Docs reachable, not hard auth-gatedvia docs | 30/30 | All 1 pages are publicly accessible. Investigated: docs 100%. | Agents can only index and fetch docs they can reach — past auth gates and over correct HTTP semantics. |
| pass | Registry & SDK presencevia docs | 28/28 | Indexed on Context7 (websites/retellai, 2093 snippets). Investigated: docs 100%, cli 100%, sdk 63%. | Listing in MCP registries and publishing SDKs puts the API where agents and their tooling look. |
| warn | llms.txt present, valid & comprehensivevia docs | 22.5/30 | No /llms-full.txt found at the candidate origins. Investigated: docs 75%. | A valid, comprehensive llms.txt is the machine-readable entry point for agents. |
| pass | Crawlable / AEOvia wellknown | 12/12 | Docs paths crawlable by all monitored AI agents. Investigated: wellknown 100%. | Bots allowed plus a fresh sitemap make docs findable by agent crawlers. |
Agent UnderstandingAgents can correctly interpret your APIs — machine-readable errors, consistent descriptions, structured data, parseable docs2 pass0 warn1 fail79B
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Agent-navigable, token-efficient docsvia docs | 22/22 | All 1 pages contain server-rendered content. Investigated: docs 100%. | Server-rendered, clean, small-footprint docs are what an agent can cheaply fetch and parse correctly. |
| pass | Docs structured datavia docs | 8/8 | JSON-LD Article markup on 16/16 assessed pages (100%) with dateModified present. Investigated: docs 100%. | Structured data (JSON-LD/schema.org) on docs pages gives agents an unambiguous parse target and is what answer engines cite. Detected on the JS-rendered head (Firecrawl) for a bounded page budget, so JS-injected JSON-LD is now caught; pages we can't render are excluded rather than failed. |
| fail | Agent instructions file (AGENTS.md)via wellknown | 0/10 | No AGENTS.md at the site root or /.well-known/. Investigated: wellknown 0%. | An AGENTS.md gives coding agents explicit setup, auth, and usage instructions to interpret and operate the API — beyond llms.txt's link index. |
| na | Machine-readable errors (RFC 9457) | —/28 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | RFC 9457 problem details and a documented error-code inventory let agents parse failures without burning tokens. |
| na | Operation purpose clarity | —/25 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | Agents select the right endpoint from its summary + operationId; clear, named operations make tool-selection reliable — the strongest driver of correct tool choice. |
| na | Description consistency across surfaces | —/7 | Only 1 surface description(s) with ≥6 tokens available; need at least 2 to compare. | Every surface tells the same story about what the product is. |
Agent UsabilityAgents have the context to use your APIs reliably, not just find them0 pass0 warn1 fail40F
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| fail | Runnable collection with test scriptsvia platform | 0/9 | No public Postman workspace discovered for the org. Investigated: platform 0%. | A public, maintained collection with assertions is runnable truth agents validate against. |
| na | Idempotency documented | —/27 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | Documented idempotency lets agents retry safely. |
| na | Rate-limit signaling | —/22 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | Machine-readable rate-limit headers let agents throttle adaptively. |
| na | Pagination documented & consistent | —/22 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | Consistent, documented pagination lets agents traverse collections. |
| na | Sandbox separation | —/20 | No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run. | An isolated environment lets agents exercise destructive operations safely. |
