Compares an OpenAPI YAML/JSON spec to a list of implemented routes and flags drift: missing operations, extra routes, method mismatches, and path-parameter shape differences. Use when reviewing API PRs, before a release, or asking "does our code still match the OpenAPI?". Includes a stdlib Python checker with --self-test.
Picks the correct HTTP status code for an API response from a plain description of what happened (created, validation failed, not found, conflict, rate limited, upstream down) and explains why, with common mistakes to avoid. Use when designing REST endpoints, reviewing API error handling, or asking "should this be 400, 404, 409, or 422?". Includes a stdlib Python suggester.
