Summary

Triad is a TypeScript/Node.js framework that unifies API specification, implementation, validation, and testing into a single source of truth. Developers write TypeScript once using a declarative DSL, and the framework automatically generates OpenAPI specs, AsyncAPI docs, BDD tests, Gherkin scenarios, database schemas, and validation logic — eliminating the need for separate, manually-maintained files that can drift out of sync. The framework is designed to be AI-friendly, making it easier for AI coding assistants to work with the codebase.
