Amazon Mechanical Turk Agentic Access

x-agentic-access generated

Amazon Mechanical Turk exposes 39 API operations that an AI agent could call, of which 39 are state-changing ‘acting’ operations. This is a recommended x-agentic-access execution contract — the scope, audience, consequence tier, short-lived token constraints, and escalation each action should carry before it is handed to an autonomous agent.

By consequence: 36 write and 3 physical.

Contracts are classified heuristically from the provider’s OpenAPI and refresh on every APIs.io network build; audience is bound per deployment. The model follows Curity’s Access Intelligence (apidays Munich 2026). Browse every provider’s agent contracts at agentic-access.apis.io.

Highest-consequence actions

The physical and safety-critical operations an agent could invoke — the ones that most warrant scoped tokens, tight TTLs, and escalation. Full per-operation contracts are in the source below.
