Endpoints from routes
Quill discovers HTTP routes from your framework — Next.js route.ts, Express handlers, FastAPI decorators, Rails controllers, Phoenix routers. Every endpoint gets a page. Removed endpoints get archived.
Hand-maintained API references diverge from the code the moment they ship. Quill reads your routes, parses your types, and pulls examples straight from your tests. The reference can't lie because the code is the source — and Quill re-derives it on every push.
A workspace is the top-level container for everything Quill generates on your behalf — repos, articles, runs, and team members. Every API call is scoped to a workspace.
List workspaces the calling token can see. Paginated, 50 per page.
Create a workspace. Returns 201 with the new workspace, or 409 if the slug is taken.
Soft-delete. Workspace stays recoverable for 30 days, then purged.
Quill discovers HTTP routes from your framework — Next.js route.ts, Express handlers, FastAPI decorators, Rails controllers, Phoenix routers. Every endpoint gets a page. Removed endpoints get archived.
Request and response types pulled from your TypeScript, Pydantic, Zod, or Sorbet. Optional fields, enums, discriminated unions — all rendered with the correct semantics. Comments on your types show up as field-level docs.
The cURL block on every page comes from a passing integration test. Examples that no longer pass get flagged, never published. Reference docs that lie are worse than no docs at all — Quill won't ship those.
Every endpoint page has a "Try it" panel. Quill pre-fills the auth header with the reader's dev token, scopes the request to a sandbox workspace, and shows the actual response — typed against your schema. No copy-pasting cURL into a terminal.
Fill in a parameter, hit Run, see the response. Switch between cURL / JavaScript / Python / Go snippets — all auto-generated from your spec, all kept in sync with your endpoint definitions.
The reader's dev token is scoped to a sandbox workspace that gets reset every hour. No risk of someone running DELETE against your production data from the docs site. Rate-limited per reader.
We deleted our hand-maintained reference site the week after we turned on Quill. Two years of "the docs are out of date" tickets went to zero. Two years.
Search "Workspace" and get the type, the endpoint that returns it, the article that explains it, and every page that references it. Quill keeps a symbol graph across both your docs and your source.
Rename a type in your code and every doc page that cited it gets a draft PR opened against itself. The reference graph stays whole even as the code evolves. No stale "see Foo" links pointing at a removed export.
