- [pass] Security & governance hygiene — No credential-shaped strings detected in spec. Investigated: spec 100%, wellknown 0%.
- [pass] Example coverage — Code samples in 6 language(s) across docs (top: shell, go, python); 6/20 pages have ≥ 2 languages on the same page. Investigated: docs 100%, spec 0%.

### Developer Experience

- [pass] Quickstart present — Quickstart at https://www.daytona.io/docs/en/sandboxes/ with a runnable first-call sample. Investigated: docs 100%.

- [warn] llms.txt present, valid & comprehensive — llms.txt is 196,131 characters (exceeds 100,000 threshold; will be truncated by most agents). Investigated: docs 79%.
- [warn] Docs reachable, not hard auth-gated — Server ignores Accept: text/markdown header (0/50 sampled pages return markdown). Investigated: docs 75%.

## Executive Summary

Daytona's API Design and Discovery foundations are strong, giving partners a solid contract to build against. The two areas that need the most attention are Agent Understanding and Agent Usability: partners and their AI agents currently lack the structured context, machine-readable documentation, and runnable examples they need to integrate confidently and quickly. Prioritize publishing an agent instructions file and structured docs surface first, then layer in runnable, tested collections and idempotency guidance to ensure partners can ship reliable integrations without guesswork.
