Velocity5.0

API documentation and interactive reference platform built on OpenAPI

Scalar's Agent Chat now asks before every API call and hides your saved keys.

◆Current state
Scalar ships several package lines on separate version tracks. The November 10 batch makes the API client's Agent Chat ask for approval before any AI-generated request, including GETs, and redacts saved credentials before responses reach the model. The API reference 1.78 renders Avro, RAML and Protobuf schemas in AsyncAPI messages, the ASP.NET Core integration adds multipart file controls and OpenID Connect defaults, and the mock server fixes decimal and nested-response bugs.
◆Where it's heading
Releases alternate between broader spec coverage (AsyncAPI schema formats, OpenAPI 3.2 details) and safety rails around automated actions, from the hardened CORS proxy to confirmation prompts in generated CLIs and now approval-gated Agent Chat.
◆Prediction
Expect more guardrails on agent-driven requests and further AsyncAPI rendering work in the reference, shipped as small parallel releases.

    API Reference 1.78.1 renders large API Gateway exports
