REPL and HTTP client

The terminal REPL evaluates JavaScript against the running simulator. Start it from the CLI or call api.startRepl().

Binding or command	Purpose
`context`	Root context, or contexts keyed by API group.
`loadContext(path)`	Read a nested context; use `loadContext.group(path)` for multiple APIs.
`store`	Live application store, when one exists.
`routes`	Loaded routes, grouped for multiple APIs.
`client`	Raw HTTP client supporting standard HTTP methods.
`route(path)`	Immutable OpenAPI-aware request builder; grouped by API key for multiple APIs.
`.scenario`	List available scenarios.
`.scenario module/function`	Execute a named scenario.

Request builder methods

Method	Result
`.method(method)`	Select the HTTP method.
`.path(values)`	Set path parameters.
`.query(values)`	Set query parameters.
`.headers(values)`	Set request headers.
`.cookies(values)`	Set cookie parameters.
`.form(values)`	Set text form fields (URL-encoded or text-only multipart).
`.body(value)`	Set the request body.
`.ready()`	Report whether required parameters are supplied.
`.missing()`	List missing required parameters.
`.help()`	Describe the selected OpenAPI operation.
`.send()`	Send the request.

Builder configuration methods return new builders, so requests can be reused and branched. Required-parameter checks are a preparation aid, not a replacement for server validation. See request builder for examples and response handling.

Standalone client

Import createOpenApiRouteCatalog and createRouteFunction from @counterfact/client to use the builder outside the REPL. See public packages.
