Is your staging API
breaking prod?
Paste two JSON responses — from staging and production, two API versions, or any two environments — and instantly see every schema difference. No OpenAPI spec. No config. No sign-up.
Paste and compare
The problem it solves
You deploy to staging. Tests pass. You promote to production — and something breaks for real users. The reason is almost always a schema difference nobody noticed:
- •staging returns userId as number, prod returns it as string
- •a required field exists in prod but got removed in the new staging build
- •a key was renamed between the old and new API version
- •prod has an extra required field that staging omitted
Every existing tool for this requires an OpenAPI spec. Most APIs — especially third-party ones — don’t have one. TypeMorph infers the schema from the actual response, so you can compare anything.
In CI — catch it before it ships
# Compare staging vs production live typemorph envdiff \ --a https://staging.api.com/users/1 \ --b https://prod.api.com/users/1 # File-based comparison typemorph envdiff staging-response.json prod-response.json # GitHub Actions PR comment typemorph envdiff \ --a https://staging.api.com/users/1 \ --b https://prod.api.com/users/1 \ --format github >> $GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY
The CLI command exits with code 1 on breaking changes. Wire it into your GitHub Actions pipeline and get a diff in your PR summary before the deployment ever reaches production.
FAQ
Do my API responses get uploaded anywhere?
No. Comparison runs entirely in your browser — no server, no API keys, no retention. Your data never leaves your machine.
Do I need an OpenAPI spec?
No. TypeMorph infers the schema directly from your JSON responses. Paste any two JSON objects and get an instant diff.
What counts as a breaking change?
Required field removed, field type changed (e.g. number → string), or field renamed. New required fields added to B are also flagged.
Can I use this in CI?
Yes — use the typemorph-cli envdiff command. It exits with code 1 on breaking changes, making it CI-native.
