Algorand

Algorand is a pure proof-of-stake blockchain platform designed for speed, security, and decentralization. It exposes REST APIs through two core daemons — Algod (the Algorand protocol daemon) for real-time node interaction including submitting transactions, querying account balances, retrieving blocks, and managing smart contracts; and the Indexer daemon for deep historical querying of accounts, assets, applications, transactions, and blocks from a PostgreSQL-backed store. A third daemon, KMD (Key Management Daemon), handles local key storage and signing. Public archival endpoints are freely available via third-party providers such as Nodely/AlgoNode, and the developer toolchain is anchored by AlgoKit with SDKs for Python, JavaScript, Go, and Java.

Algorand publishes 15 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Common API, Key API, Lookup API, and 12 more. Tagged areas include Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, Proof of Stake, DeFi, and Smart Contracts.

The Algorand catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Algorand’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, getting-started guide, CLI, engineering blog, support, and 17 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):

MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Request/Response Examples +7 pts — share of operations carrying request/response examples; else an Examples / Code Samples link
Registration Without a Human +6 pts — a `registration_endpoint` in the served RFC 8414 / OIDC discovery document

    It exposes wallet management, key generation, and signing endpoints through a locally-running daemon. Authentication uses
    an X-KMD-API-Token header with a token stored in the node's data directory. KMD is intended for node operators and local
    development workflows; production applications typically use external signing solutions or the AlgoKit SDK utilities instead.
