Anthropic Agentic Access

x-agentic-access generated

Anthropic exposes 71 API operations that an AI agent could call, of which 37 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: 34 read, 33 write, 1 physical, and 3 safety-critical.

3 operations are classed safety-critical and should require human-in-the-loop approval at runtime.

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.
