Where CrewAI is ahead

CrewAI passes llms.txt published and llms-full.txt / full agent docs, and Treblle does not. That is discover, whether an agent can find the product at all without being told it exists.

It also holds understand: openapi / spec quality, authentication documented, request examples provided, response examples provided and errors and status codes documented. Treblle misses those.

And on adopt, self-service signup, programmatic credential creation and fast time to first request. Treblle misses those.

Finally, on operate, structured, predictable output and machine-readable errors. Treblle misses those.
