Reads your repositories to discover every API, scores and governs them, then exposes them to developers and AI agents via hosted MCP servers.

Spec-Free API Discovery: Elva scans repository code directly to find endpoints and generates OpenAPI 3.1 as output, so no existing spec is needed to start.
Endpoint Scoring: Every collection is graded on design, developer experience, AI readiness, security and performance, with the weakest collection surfaced first.
AI Fix Pass: A one-click agent writes missing descriptions from code, types response schemas and documents auth, then rescores the collection.
API Contracts: Per-audience contracts pin the exact endpoints and fields a partner, internal team, public developer or MCP client receives, excluding PII and internal fields.
Breaking Change Enforcement: Each commit is diffed against published contracts, showing the schema diff, affected consumers and tools, and blocking publish by policy.
Hosted MCP Servers: Contracts generate MCP servers hosted behind Elva's gateway with OAuth2, scoped keys, per-tool authorization and exportable call logs.
MCP Playground and Agent Feedback: Test the server with a live model, then read the complaints agents file about confusing or failing tools, scored back into the catalog.
Multi-Target Publishing: One approved contract ships as OpenAPI spec, Theneo docs, MCP server, Postman collection and a typed TypeScript SDK in sync.

API Inventory Audit: Discover undocumented or forgotten endpoints across a large codebase and get a ranked list of what to fix first.
Agent Enablement: Expose an internal service to Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT as a governed MCP server instead of hand-writing tool wrappers.
Partner Integration Safety: Publish a restricted contract to an external partner and have Elva block commits that would break their integration.
PII Scoping: Keep customer emails and internal ops annotations out of a public or agent-facing surface while the same endpoints serve them internally.
Zombie Endpoint Retirement: Prove no active consumer references an endpoint before deleting it, using contract and call-log evidence.
Enterprise Security Review: Satisfy SOC 2, ISO 27001 and GDPR questions and wire agent access into an existing SSO and SCIM identity provider.
Documentation Drift Control: Keep docs, SDKs and Postman collections regenerated from code on every merge instead of maintained by hand.

qarunbook is an app testing runbook where AI drafts a test plan from your code and your team or AI works through it, tracking issues and retests.

AI-Drafted Test Plans: The /test-checklist skill looks through your app and drafts checks with steps and expected results already filled in.
MCP Connection: Connect Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor or any MCP client so the assistant can read the plan and record results.
Issue-to-Check Linking: Every issue sits on the check that found it with the affected platforms, and raising one removes the pass.
Retest Flow: When an issue is fixed the check waits for someone to look again before being marked passed.
Roles and Join Links: Give people access to only the projects they need and invite whole groups with a join link.
Multi-App Workspaces: Keep each app's sections and platforms separate so web, driver and marketing sites are tested side by side.
GitHub and Linear Integration: Connect issue trackers so problems found in testing flow into existing engineering workflows.
QA Runbook Skill: The /qa-runbook skill works through the plan on web and mobile, recording each result and re-checking fixes.

Release Testing: Run a structured test plan before each release across web, Android and iOS.
AI-Assisted QA: Let a coding assistant execute checks and record pass/fail results through MCP.
Team Test Coordination: Split test checklists among teammates and see progress and results in one workspace.
Regression Follow-up: Track bugs against specific checks and retest them after fixes ship.
Solo Developer Testing: Generate a test plan from the codebase so a one-person team knows what to check.
Agency Multi-Client QA: Manage separate apps and clients with scoped access and a flat workspace price.
