What OpenAPI versions does specrun support?

The server converts OpenAPI specs into queryable tools. Check the documentation for specific version support (OpenAPI 3.0 and 3.1 are most common), or test with your spec directly.

How do I authenticate with APIs that require API keys or OAuth?

Authentication details depend on your OpenAPI spec definition. The server converts the spec as-is, so ensure your spec includes security schemes and pass credentials as needed when querying endpoints.

Can I use specrun with private or local OpenAPI specs?

Yes, you can load specs from local files or remote URLs. Provide the spec path or URL when initializing the server, and it will convert those endpoints into tools.

What happens if an API endpoint is down or returns an error?

The server will pass through the API's error response. Handle errors in your agent logic or check the endpoint's availability before querying.

Is there a cost to using specrun?

Specrun itself is open-source (installed via npm). You only pay for API calls made to the endpoints defined in your OpenAPI spec.
