Executive summary
Your Forter API received a composite score of 52.4 out of 100, reflecting that it is not ready for deployment. The API scored 36.8 in standards compliance, which shows significant weaknesses in meeting industry requirements. Documentation readiness for AI stands at 55.4, while SDK readiness and MCP readiness both show significant gaps with scores of 62.8 and 62.3, respectively. To improve your API's readiness, prioritize addressing the 23 high findings identified during the audit.

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
55Significant gaps
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

62/100
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 Forter 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.

Specification Violations Disrupt Toolchains
You must address the invalid specification extension name, as it breaks SDK generation and downstream integrations in the payments domain.

AI readers misinterpret API due to gaps
The Forter API lacks essential parameter descriptions, leading to incorrect assumptions in coding assistants and documentation pipelines.
74%
of developers name missing or unclear documentation as the top reason they abandon an API. AI readers are stricter: what a human would ask about, an AI assumes.

Agents struggle to execute API calls
The Forter API's operation descriptions and error responses lack clarity, hindering agent performance in payments.
