We should have a description of the minimum required functionality that a Stan interface must implement.
This may include

  • compiling a Stan model from a file
  • sampling of the model
  • optimization of the model
  • repeatability of results given a fixed seed
  • data I/O
  • exporting generated samples

Additional:

  • what visualizations are available

  • posterior analysis (this should be further broken down)

  • R-hat

  • n_eff

  • extractions

  • samples +/- warmup +/- scrambling +/- structured extraction

  • operations allowed with Stan model

  • log prob +/- constrained

  • gradients

  • higher order derivatives

  • variable name access

  • variable dimensions access

  • transforms to and from constrained form
