  title: Sideko API Projects Linting API
  description: The Sideko REST API enables developers to programmatically manage API projects, generate SDKs in six languages, generate Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, deploy CLI tools, create mock servers, lint OpenAPI specifications, and publish API documentation. The API powers the Sideko platform which transforms OpenAPI specifications into complete developer tooling suites (SDKs, MCP, Docs, Mocks, CLIs) automatically.
