Current features are:

Native Admin Experience: Features a clean, polished Swagger UI and a practical ScratchPad UI that blend seamlessly into the WordPress admin, making them feel like core features.
100% Client-Side OAS Generation: It dynamically queries the standard discovery URL wp-json using JavaScript and transforms the response into OAS. No server-side overhead, no heavy PHP parsing, and no guesswork. You see exactly what the outside world sees.
Instant OAS Download: Easily download the full OpenAPI Specification in JSON format via a dedicated link for seamless integration with your favorite developer tools.
Zero-Configuration Testing: It safely leverages your active admin session and WordPress nonces. Test all standard HTTP verbs (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE) securely without configuring external tokens or OAuth.
Production Safe & Invisible: The developer tools are strictly restricted to administrators. For regular visitors and production traffic, the plugin has zero impact and loads zero assets.
