summary

Claims a 10x developer experience and 75% shorter cycle time by shifting API governance left, using machine-readable specs in a central Git contract repo and PR gating with linting and backward-compat checks. Demonstrates gRPC + proto3 issues fixed by buf validate, OpenAPI roundtrip failures from codegen, and automated contract tests and stubs via Specmatic (51 tests run, 2 fail; later 7 succeed 3 fail) to catch mismatches at design time. Patent granted for the stub-vs-test backward-compat technique.
