## Check Results

### API Design

- [warn] Schema coverage & depth — 16/17 (94%) public params are fully typed (no any/**kwargs). Analyzer reports not all methods have a derivable input schema. Investigated: sdk 90%.
- [pass] Example coverage — README is present and includes a runnable quickstart. Investigated: sdk 100%, docs 0%.
- [warn] Security & governance hygiene — security.txt present but served only at the legacy /security.txt path; missing Contact; missing or expired Expires. Investigated: wellknown 50%.
- [skip] Machine-readable, versioned contract — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Auth declared & discoverable — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.

### Developer Experience

- [pass] Quickstart present — Quickstart at https://support.bolt.new/get-started/intro-bolt with a runnable first-call sample. Investigated: docs 100%.
- [pass] Changelog published — Newest official SDK activity 22 day(s) ago. Investigated: sdk 100%.
- [warn] Description completeness — 139/232 operations lack a description. Investigated: sdk 40%.
- [fail] Self-service developer portal — Signup page is sales-gated (contact-sales/request-access language detected). Investigated: docs 0%.
- [fail] Code samples in docs — No detectable code samples across 19 sampled docs pages. Investigated: docs 0%.

### Agent Discovery

- [pass] Registry & SDK presence — Indexed on Context7 (websites/support_bolt_new, 800 snippets). Investigated: docs 100%, sdk 100%, wellknown 50%, cli 0%, mcp 0%.
- [warn] Docs reachable, not hard auth-gated — 1 of 50 sampled pages require authentication (49 accessible). Investigated: docs 90%.
- [warn] llms.txt present, valid & comprehensive — llms.txt contains parseable links but doesn't fully follow the proposed structure: https://support.bolt.new/llms.txt: No blockquote summary found. Investigated: docs 88%, sdk 0%.
- [pass] Crawlable / AEO — Docs paths crawlable by all monitored AI agents. Investigated: wellknown 100%.

### Agent Understanding

- [warn] Agent-navigable, token-efficient docs — 1 of 50 sampled pages have content starting past 50% (worst 107%). Investigated: docs 85%.
- [warn] Machine-readable errors (RFC 9457) — Single base error "null" present, but only 1 subclass found; a richer hierarchy lets consumers catch narrowly. Investigated: sdk 50%.
- [pass] Docs structured data — JSON-LD Article markup on 11/11 assessed pages (100%) with dateModified present. Investigated: docs 100%.
- [fail] Agent instructions file (AGENTS.md) — No AGENTS.md at the site root or /.well-known/. Investigated: wellknown 0%.
- [skip] Operation purpose clarity — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Description consistency across surfaces — Only 1 surface description(s) with ≥6 tokens available; need at least 2 to compare.

### Agent Usability

- [pass] Sandbox separation — Sandbox environments are exposed (sandbox). Investigated: sdk 100%.
- [fail] Idempotency documented — No built-in retry machinery was found; transient failures are not retried. Investigated: sdk 0%.
- [fail] Runnable collection with test scripts — No public Postman workspace discovered for the org. Investigated: platform 0%.
- [skip] Rate-limit signaling — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Pagination documented & consistent — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.

## Executive Summary

Bolt's API program shines in design and discovery — auth, schema quality, and documentation reachability are all in strong shape, giving partners a solid foundation to build on. The critical gaps are in agent readiness and partner onboarding: there is no structured guidance file for AI agents, idempotency behavior is undocumented, no runnable collection exists for partners or their coding agents to execute against, and the self-service portal and in-docs code samples that compress time-to-first-call are missing. Closing these gaps — starting with runnable, executable truth for agents and a self-service portal with code samples — will unlock autonomous partner onboarding and make Bolt's APIs viable for the AI-agent integrations partners increasingly depend on.
