AI agents currently generate 72% of all traffic to API documentation, yet they rarely consult these resources when a request fails. Restless addresses this by allowing developers to initialize the system via a "npx restless init" command and supporting integration with Claude Code or Codex. Agents can additionally search and replay their own API calls through a hosted MCP server.

ReadMe Ships Restless Tool for AI Agents Generating 72% of Doc Traffic

Failed API responses will now include direct fix steps and documentation links via a new tool designed to assist autonomous software agents. Developed by the team behind ReadMe, Restless embeds resolution instructions into error messages so that AI agents can resolve failures without needing to search manually for technical guides. The system captures live traffic to convert agent feedback into tickets for Linear or suggested updates to documentation.
