About
malston-openapi-docs-generator is a Claude Code plugin that helps developers produce OpenAPI or Swagger documentation from code instead of maintaining parallel spec documents by hand. When you ship REST or HTTP APIs, stale docs break client integrations and slow validation; this plugin targets the gap between your handlers and a contract you can share with frontend work, partners, or AI agents that call your API. It is a task-oriented development tool—run generation against the codebase you are actively changing—rather than an methodology. Typical use is mid-build after routes stabilize, before contract tests or developer portals. Pair the output with review skills or manual pass for auth, examples, and error models the generator might omit. The catalog lists one community plugin with explicit generate-openapi-from-code positioning, so expect repo-specific configuration for framework annotations or scan paths. Intermediate complexity reflects need to understand your stack’s OpenAPI export paths and where generated YAML or JSON should land in CI or docs sites.
- Generates OpenAPI/Swagger documentation directly from application code
- Community plugin with documentation, generate, openapi, and openapiswagger keywords
- Single-plugin bundle under malston/openapi-docs-generator
- Reduces drift between implemented endpoints and published API reference
- Fits backend-heavy SaaS and CLI services exposing HTTP APIs

What it does
Generate OpenAPI or Swagger documentation from existing code so API contracts stay accurate without hand-maintaining spec files.

Best when you want contract files for clients, mocks, or agent tools without a separate spec editor.
Skip if: Products with no HTTP API or teams that already enforce schema-first design with specs as the sole source of truth.
What you get
After install, you can regenerate OpenAPI or Swagger artifacts from source so docs track the API you actually ship.
- Generated OpenAPI or Swagger specification files derived from code
- Repeatable doc refresh workflow inside Claude Code sessions
