## Check Results

### API Design

- [warn] Schema coverage & depth — no .d.ts found. Investigated: sdk 75%.
- [pass] Security & governance hygiene — security.txt valid at https://laposte.fr/.well-known/security.txt (Contact + unexpired Expires). Investigated: wellknown 100%.
- [pass] Example coverage — README is present and includes a runnable quickstart. Investigated: sdk 100%, docs 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] Description completeness — 3/3 operations carry a description. Investigated: sdk 100%.
- [warn] Quickstart present — Quickstart page reachable (1 variants scanned starting at https://faq.developer.laposte.fr/kb/fr/) but no runnable code sample detected in HTML or .md variant. Investigated: docs 50%.
- [fail] Self-service developer portal — No self-service signup detected: no signup link found on the homepage or docs, and no conventional signup path (/signup, /sign-up, /register, /get-started, /console/signup, /dashboard/signup, /try, /try-free, /free, /free-trial, /start, /start-free, /join, /create-account, /account/signup, /auth/signup, /users/sign_up) resolved. Investigated: docs 0%.
- [fail] Code samples in docs — No detectable code samples across 1 sampled docs pages. Investigated: docs 0%.
- [fail] Changelog published — Official SDKs stale: newest activity 3409 days ago. Investigated: sdk 0%.

### Agent Discovery

- [pass] Registry & SDK presence — Indexed on Context7 (websites/applications_colissimo_entreprise_laposte_fr_doc-colissimo_redoc-sls_fr, 418 snippets). Investigated: docs 100%, sdk 42%, cli 0%.
- [warn] Docs reachable, not hard auth-gated — Server ignores Accept: text/markdown header (0/1 pages return markdown). Investigated: docs 75%.
- [warn] Crawlable / AEO — No sitemap discoverable via robots.txt or /sitemap.xml on the docs host. Investigated: wellknown 50%.
- [fail] llms.txt present, valid & comprehensive — No llms.txt found at any candidate location (https://developer.laposte.fr/llms.txt, https://developer.laposte.fr/docs/llms.txt). Investigated: docs 0%, sdk 0%.

### Agent Understanding

- [warn] Agent-navigable, token-efficient docs — No pages support .md URLs (0/1 tested). Investigated: docs 86%.
- [fail] Machine-readable errors (RFC 9457) — No single common SDK base error class was found; errors do not share one root. Investigated: sdk 0%.
- [fail] Agent instructions file (AGENTS.md) — No AGENTS.md at the site root or /.well-known/. Investigated: wellknown 0%.
- [fail] Docs structured data — Neither JSON-LD nor OpenGraph/meta tags detected across 1 assessed pages (1 JS-rendered). Investigated: docs 0%.
- [skip] Operation purpose clarity — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Description consistency across surfaces — Only 0 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

Laposte's API Design foundation is strong — the schema and contract surface gives partners a solid base to build against. However, the partner program has critical gaps in two areas that directly affect partner activation and agent-readiness: developer experience (no changelog, no self-service portal, missing code samples) and agent understanding (no machine-readable errors, no agent instructions, no structured docs). Partners cannot onboard independently today, and AI agents cannot reliably discover or consume these APIs without guessing. Prioritize standing up a self-service documentation experience with agent-ready signals first, then close the operational and runnable-truth gaps to make integrations trustworthy end-to-end.
