## Check Results

### API Design

- [pass] Example coverage — Code samples in 4 language(s) across docs (top: shell, python, javascript); 3/16 pages have ≥ 2 languages on the same page. Investigated: docs 100%, sdk 100%.
- [warn] Schema coverage & depth — 0/22 (0%) public params are fully typed (no any/**kwargs). Analyzer reports not all methods have a derivable input schema. Investigated: sdk 25%.
- [fail] Security & governance hygiene — No security.txt at /.well-known/security.txt or /security.txt. Investigated: wellknown 0%.
- [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] Self-service developer portal — Signup page at https://my.exotel.com/auth/register; no free-tier language detected in docs/pricing. Investigated: docs 100%.
- [pass] Quickstart present — Quickstart at https://developer.exotel.com/docs/getting-started/overview with a runnable first-call sample. Investigated: docs 100%.
- [pass] Code samples in docs — Code samples in 4 language(s) across docs (top: shell, python, javascript); 3/16 pages have ≥ 2 languages on the same page. Investigated: docs 100%.
- [pass] Description completeness — 5/5 operations carry a description. Investigated: sdk 100%.
- [pass] Changelog published — Newest official SDK activity 7 day(s) ago. Investigated: sdk 100%.

### Agent Discovery

- [pass] Registry & SDK presence — Indexed on Context7 (websites/developer_exotel, 1076 snippets). Investigated: docs 100%, cli 100%, sdk 67%, mcp 0%, wellknown 0%.
- [warn] Docs reachable, not hard auth-gated — Server ignores Accept: text/markdown header (0/50 sampled pages return markdown). Investigated: docs 75%.
- [warn] Crawlable / AEO — Sitemap present (342 entries) but carries no lastmod values. Investigated: wellknown 75%.
- [fail] llms.txt present, valid & comprehensive — No llms.txt found at any candidate location (https://developer.exotel.com/llms.txt, https://developer.exotel.com/docs/llms.txt). Investigated: docs 0%, sdk 0%.

### Agent Understanding

- [warn] Agent-navigable, token-efficient docs — No sampled pages support .md URLs (0/50 tested). Investigated: docs 67%.
- [warn] Docs structured data — OpenGraph/meta tags only across 15 assessed pages — no JSON-LD for answer engines to cite. Investigated: docs 50%.
- [fail] Agent instructions file (AGENTS.md) — No AGENTS.md at the site root or /.well-known/. Investigated: wellknown 0%.
- [skip] Machine-readable errors (RFC 9457) — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [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

- [warn] Sandbox separation — No test-mode flag or sandbox environment is exposed. Investigated: sdk 50%.
- [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

Exotel's API program shows meaningful strengths in its core API surface, but two areas are holding back partner success: agents and developers cannot reliably discover, understand, or safely execute workflows against the API. The most urgent priorities are making the API program machine-readable and agent-friendly — adding the discoverability signals agents need to find and trust your APIs — and providing a runnable, test-backed collection that compresses the time from first look to first working integration. Fixing these two gaps will unlock self-serve partner onboarding and give AI-powered development tools the context they need to build correctly against Exotel's APIs.
