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
