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/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/artifactories: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  note: Merged from the descriptor the provider serves. Only the self url was re-pointed. The submission text said it does
    not claim MCP; the descriptor declares one and it answers an initialize handshake, so MCP is recorded on the probe rather
    than on either statement.

  notes: 'Re-ran against a contract that moved between passes. The deployed OpenAPI went 0.6.14 -> 0.6.15 overnight and added
    a shared ErrorEnvelope schema with a namespaced ERR.* code space, an Idempotency-Key request header with Idempotency-Key/Idempotency-Replayed
    response headers, and a declared Retry-After on 41 of 47 failure responses - closing the exact gap the 2026-09-03 pass
    recorded as this contract''s weakest point. The spec, llms.txt and the published SKILL.md were re-saved verbatim and the
    skill digest re-verified against the provider''s discovery index. Two new artifacts: a per-operation agentic-access contract
    (28 operations classified) and an event-surface record. One prior finding was WITHDRAWN as false - the MCP Registry is
    not stale; the earlier pass read servers[0] of an all-versions search instead of the isLatest entry. All 22 external pointers
    re-fetched live. No maintainer email exists to record: the provider routes all contact through GitHub issues, discussions
    and private advisories, by choice.'
x-coverage:

  reason: fully-machine-readable
  detail: Artifactories serves an OpenAPI 3.1 (v0.6.15) with 28 operations and a shared error schema, an anonymous live MCP
    endpoint with 4 fully-schema'd tools, llms.txt, apis.json, an ARD manifest, an MCP server card and a digest-pinned Agent
    Skill - all at stable URLs and all readable without a credential. The only absent surfaces are ones the provider deliberately
    declines to claim.
