Executive summary
Alloy API scores 49.7/100: Not ready · Grade F. The weakest pillar is Standards compliance at 40; the strongest is SDK readiness for AI at 57. We recorded 6735 finding instances: 0 critical, 616 high, 3173 medium, and 2946 low. Gaps for AI-assisted builds. Not ready for autonomous agents. Every finding lives in the specification, and the roadmap in this report orders the fixes by impact; resolving them projects the score to 100/100.
Readiness by pillar

FoundationThe spec itself
40/100
Standards Compliance
OpenAPI validity, structural correctness, specification conformance, and import linting: can machines trust your spec?
40Not ready
Build Time ReadinessAI writes the code
56/100
Documentation Readiness for AI
Descriptions that say when to use an operation, examples that pin down every shape: whether an AI can learn the truth of your API from what you publish
54Not ready
SDK Readiness for AI
Clean types, predictable naming, correct formats: whether production-grade client code can be generated from your spec, by SDK pipelines and AI coding assistants alike
57Significant gaps
Runtime ReadinessAgents make the calls
53/100
MCP Readiness
Whether your operations survive being turned into tools: distinct names, descriptions that carry what an agent must know, safe invocation semantics, auth, error recovery, and context budget

About this report. We evaluated the Alloy API specification against thousands of deterministic rules we have refined over twelve years of building API tooling, supplemented by AI-based analysis. Every finding is reproducible from the spec itself, scored consistently, and paired with a concrete fix.
