Agent-Readiness Analysis
This plugin includes Clara integration for grading APIs on AI agent compatibility.
Clara checks 8 pillars:
- Metadata - operationIds, summaries, descriptions
- Errors - Structured error responses
- Introspection - Parameter types, examples
- Naming - Consistent casing, RESTful paths
- Predictability - Response schemas
- Documentation - Auth docs, rate limits
- Performance - Response times
- Discoverability - Server URLs, spec accessibility
Score 70%+ with no critical failures = Agent Ready
Documentation Intelligence
This plugin includes the Postman Learning Center MCP for documentation access. When you ask "how do I..." questions, Claude can pull actual Postman docs instead of guessing.
/postman
How do I set up OAuth 2.0 authentication?
The plugin queries https://learning.postman.com/_mcp/server for accurate, up-to-date documentation.
