CMS-0057 API Gate

Runs the same checker as our npm package on a Node.js runtime that pip installs for you (nodejs-wheel-binaries) - no system Node.js needed. Your files are checked locally.

14 rules read a FHIR CapabilityStatement against CMS-0057-F. A 2021 payer statement returned 6 blocking gaps - three of the four APIs missing - and 107 days left to 1 January 2027.

Install

Node 18+. The same 14 rules as the VS Code extension, from a terminal or CI.

Free

• Open any FHIR CapabilityStatement and see every CMS-0057-F gap in the editor: all 14 rules, each with its API name and the days left to 1 January 2027. The sample 2021 payer statement returns 10 findings, 6 of them blocking gaps.
• --rules lists every rule

With a licence ($29 once)

• Export the same audit as a dated Markdown and CSV gap report, one row per gap with its CMS-0057-F citation, so the evidence leaves the editor and goes into the compliance file an auditor asks for.
