  version: wp/v2
  summary: 'Public read surface of boundlessbio.com content: corporate pages, the Leadership directory (board of directors, executive leadership and scientific founders), the media library, taxonomies and site search.'
  description: 'Boundless Bio publishes boundlessbio.com on WordPress (hosted on WP Engine), which exposes the WordPress REST API at https://boundlessbio.com/wp-json/. The wp/v2 namespace is anonymously readable and returns the company''s corporate pages (9 published), its `who-we-are` Leadership custom post type (27 published, categorized as board-of-directors, leadership and scientific-founders), the media library (255 items), taxonomies and a site-wide search endpoint as JSON.


    This document was DERIVED mechanically by API Evangelist from the route-discovery document served at https://boundlessbio.com/wp-json/ on 2026-08-08 - every path, method and parameter below is taken verbatim from that descriptor. Boundless Bio does not publish an OpenAPI definition of its own, and this is not a product API: it is the content API the CMS exposes. Boundless Bio is a clinical-stage oncology company and ships no developer program, no product API and no SDKs. Write operations exist on these routes but require authentication (WordPress Application Passwords over HTTP Basic).


    Observed anonymously on 2026-08-08: /wp/v2/posts returns 0 items (the company publishes no blog on this host; investor news is served from investors.boundlessbio.com, a Q4/gcs-web investor site). /wp/v2/settings and the wp-abilities/v1 registry return 401 rest_forbidden. There is no MCP namespace on this host.'
