Cloud9

Cloud9 Esports, Inc. is a North American professional esports organization founded in 2013 by Jack and Paullie Etienne and headquartered in Santa Monica, California. It fields competitive rosters across League of Legends, VALORANT, VALORANT Game Changers, Call of Duty and Rainbow Six, and its trophy case includes the inaugural Overwatch World Championship, the 2018 Rocket League World Championship, multiple LCS titles and a Counter-Strike Major. Beyond competition it runs Club9 (a membership and fan community at club9.cloud9.gg), an official Shopify merchandise store at store.cloud9.gg, and a content and creator division. Cloud9 publishes no developer program and no OpenAPI, but its public web estate is machine-readable: cloud9.gg runs on WordPress and serves an anonymous, unauthenticated WordPress REST API at /wp-json/ covering news posts, pages, media and the Cloud9-specific players, teams, achievement and case-study content types, alongside a remote Model Context Protocol server advertised through RFC 8414 and RFC 9728 discovery metadata.

Cloud9 publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Esports, Gaming, Entertainment, and Media.

Cloud9’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, signup flow, authentication, and 24 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 could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% 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/cloud9: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  description: A remote Model Context Protocol server published on cloud9.gg and advertised through RFC 8414 OAuth authorization-server
    metadata and RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata. It is the WordPress MCP adapter fronting the Cloud9 content estate,
    exposed at the WordPress REST namespace `mcp` with two servers — mcp-oauth-server and mcp-adapter-default-server — plus
    the companion wp-abilities/v1 namespace. Authorization is OAuth 2.1 authorization code with PKCE (S256), a single coarse
    `mcp` scope, public clients (token_endpoint_auth_method none) and client-ID metadata documents rather than RFC 7591 dynamic
    registration. An anonymous tools/list call returns 401 with a well-formed WWW-Authenticate Bearer challenge carrying the
    resource_metadata pointer, so the live tool list and per-tool inputSchema require an authorized session. No tool inventory
    is published anywhere public, so none is recorded here.
