OpenAPI Track Welcome and OpenAPI in the Age of AI
summary
OpenAPI history and momentum get concrete numbers: 10 years of stewardship, ~100 speakers and 130–140 presentations from the track, and the spec at OpenAPI 3.2 (Sept 2025). The talk claims AI makes APIs more important, shows tooling gaps (GitHub ≈ 1,200 operations vs ≈60 handcrafted tools), and warns against auto‑exposing every endpoint as MCP tools. Demonstrated artifacts include workflow spec Orazio/Aratto and AI‑readiness tooling like the Gentic AI readiness scorecard and a similar Postman tool.
