  3. Arazzo-Specification

    The Arazzo Specification - A Tapestry for Deterministic API Workflows

    This looks quite similar to Arazzo: https://github.com/OAI/Arazzo-Specification/

  4. steampipe

    Zero-ETL, infinite possibilities. Live query APIs, code & more with SQL. No DB required.

    The request / data fetching is interesting in how "easy" it is to write. I did basic perusal of the examples, but I'd be interested to see what it looks like with rate-limited endpoints and concurrent requests.

    Another tangentially related project is https://steampipe.io/ though it is for exposing APIs via Postgres tables and the clients are written using Go code and shared through a marketplace.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
