OpenAPI

Also known as: OpenAPI / Swagger / OAS / オープンAPI

The standard YAML/JSON specification for describing REST APIs (formerly Swagger). Machine-readable endpoint, parameter, and schema definitions enable automatic client SDK generation, validation, and test automation.


Overview

OpenAPI 3.x defines request and response schemas in JSONSchema format. FastAPI and Hono generate OpenAPI documents automatically from code. Serving an interactive Swagger UI is now standard practice.

AI Agent Integration

ChatGPT plugins and Claude tool definitions both use OpenAPI format, making it an increasingly important interface description standard for LLM agents calling external APIs. See Hono implementation guide.
