Executive summary
Payments Orchestrator REST API scores 83.1/100: Mostly ready · Grade B. The weakest pillar is Documentation readiness for AI at 66; the strongest is Standards compliance at 91. We recorded 1427 finding instances: 0 critical, 25 high, 599 medium, and 803 low. Functional for AI-assisted builds. Partially 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.

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 Payments Orchestrator REST 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.
What's at stake
Residual risks to monitor
No active failures, but elevated risks remain. Continued improvement will bring these into the managed band.
