I love structured repositories of knowledge and documentation like this because it opens a lot of doors for automating some broader software engineering talent.

This could be a really cool opportunity to programatically find common subsets of fields/operations that are sent together in many APIs and see if there's a way to build libraries and tooling across a bunch of languages to handle operations on those fields.

I haven't heard of anyone reverse engineering common schemas / parameters from existing APIs (I doubt the commonalities are really there) but there are projects like this one [0] which express schema.org types as JSON Schema objects suitable for use in OpenAPI.

That's awesome! One more step towards the semantic web.
