## Check Results

### API Design

- [pass] Auth declared & discoverable — Authentication required (global or on every operation). Investigated: spec 100%, docs 100%, wellknown 50%.
- [warn] Schema coverage & depth — 126/127 (99%) public params are fully typed (no any/**kwargs). Analyzer reports not all methods have a derivable input schema. Investigated: sdk 100%, spec 67%.
- [warn] Machine-readable, versioned contract — info.version="8.8.0" set but no versioning scheme (URL / header / media type) detected. Investigated: spec 75%, docs 50%.
- [pass] Security & governance hygiene — No credential-shaped strings detected in spec. Investigated: spec 100%, wellknown 50%.
- [pass] Example coverage — README is present and includes a runnable quickstart. Investigated: sdk 100%, spec 0%.

### Developer Experience

- [pass] Self-service developer portal — Signup page at https://www.pandadoc.com/signup/; no free-tier language detected in docs/pricing. Investigated: docs 100%.
- [pass] Description completeness — 93% of operations + parameters have substantive descriptions. Investigated: spec 100%, sdk 0%.
- [pass] Changelog published — Newest official SDK activity 87 day(s) ago. Investigated: sdk 100%, spec 0%, docs 0%.
- [fail] Quickstart present — No quickstart/getting-started page found at the conventional paths. Investigated: docs 0%.
- [skip] Code samples in docs — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.

### Agent Discovery

- [pass] Registry & SDK presence — Indexed on Context7 (llmstxt/developers_pandadoc_llms_txt, 7410 snippets). Investigated: docs 100%, sdk 100%, cli 0%, mcp 0%, wellknown 0%.
- [warn] Docs reachable, not hard auth-gated — 45 JavaScript redirect(s) detected across 50 sampled pages. Investigated: docs 50%.
- [warn] llms.txt present, valid & comprehensive — Could not test any pages; 50 failed to fetch. Investigated: docs 43%, sdk 0%.
- [warn] Crawlable / AEO — No sitemap discoverable via robots.txt or /sitemap.xml on the docs host. Investigated: wellknown 50%.

### Agent Understanding

- [pass] Machine-readable errors (RFC 9457) — 9 distinct 4xx/5xx response codes documented. Investigated: docs 100%, sdk 100%, spec 50%.
- [pass] Operation purpose clarity — 100% of operations have a clear summary + operationId an agent can select on. Investigated: spec 100%.
- [warn] Agent-navigable, token-efficient docs — Could not fetch HTML for any pages to compare; 24 failed to fetch. Investigated: docs 70%.
- [fail] Agent instructions file (AGENTS.md) — No AGENTS.md at the site root or /.well-known/. Investigated: wellknown 0%.
- [skip] Docs structured data — 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] Pagination documented & consistent — Pagination params detected on 24 list endpoint(s). Investigated: spec 100%, docs 100%.
- [warn] Rate-limit signaling — Only 1 rate-limit header(s) documented. Investigated: spec 50%, docs 50%.
- [warn] Sandbox separation — No test-mode flag or sandbox environment is exposed. Investigated: sdk 50%, spec 0%, docs 0%.
- [warn] Runnable collection with test scripts — No test scripts found in the workspace's collections. Investigated: platform 50%.
- [fail] Idempotency documented — 0% of mutating operations document idempotency. Investigated: spec 0%, docs 0%, sdk 0%.

## Executive Summary

PandaDoc's API program shows strong fundamentals in API design and contract quality, giving partners a solid machine-readable surface to build against. The most urgent gaps are in agent context and operational reliability: there is no structured guidance file for AI agents, idempotency is undocumented (a critical risk for document-workflow integrations where duplicate submissions cause real business harm), and partners lack a fast, self-serve path to a first successful call. Prioritize closing the agent-context and reliability gaps first, then invest in discoverability and onboarding to accelerate partner activation at scale.
