Your API, live from its spec.

Specall is a local-first API client for backend developers. Point it at a running service's OpenAPI URL — endpoints materialize, documented and runnable. Send requests, chain them into pipelines, keep everything in git-friendly files.

Spec-first, just-in-time

Point Specall at a live OpenAPI URL — a springdoc /v3/api-docs, a file, anything. Endpoints materialize instantly and stay bound to the spec: refresh re-resolves, so you test the API as it is now.

An editor, not a wall of forms

A Zed-style shell: file-tree navigator, coarse tabs, command palette. Endpoints render as runnable .http buffers in Monaco with spec-aware completions — params, headers, and request-body fields, typed and documented.

Reference docs built in

Every endpoint gets a Stripe-style reference view: typed parameters, request-body fields with nested attributes, response codes — plus a cURL sample and inline "Try it".

Pipelines

Chain requests into runnable sequences. Extract values from a response — JSON path, header, or status — into variables the next step uses. Auth call → token → real request, in one run.

Local-first and git-friendly

Collections live in plain YAML files you can commit next to the API they test. SQLite is only a rebuildable cache. Fully usable offline, zero account.

Open source

The desktop app, the Rust request engine, and the collection format are developed in the open. The engine is headless by design — the same core will back a CLI runner for CI.

On the roadmap

not shipped yet

Auth automation

The headline bet: never copy-paste a JWT again. Script providers and first-class IdP integrations (Keycloak, Clerk, …) fetch and inject tokens automatically.

Native gRPC

The engine is protocol-pluggable; gRPC is next behind the same abstraction.

CLI pipeline runner

Run saved pipelines headlessly in CI — same engine, no app.

Cloud sync & teams

Optional paid tier: workspaces, sharing, hosted auth integrations.
