name: CloudMinds
description: CloudMinds — now operating as Dataa Robotics (达闼机器人股份有限公司) — is a cloud-robotics company founded in 2015, originally
  with dual headquarters in Beijing, China and Santa Clara/Irvine, California, and backed by SoftBank and Foxconn. It builds
  cloud-connected smart machines and the HARIX ("Human Augmented Robot Intelligence with eXtreme reality") cloud AI robot
  brain, operating cloud robots over its robot secure private network and a digital-twin simulation layer. Its developer offering
  is the HARIX Robot Development Kit (RDK) — an app behavior blueprint editor, motion/dance editor, scene-map tools, and a
  robot simulation/training platform — distributed through the HARIX RDK portal, the HarixRDK GitHub organization, and the
  official "harix" Python SDK on PyPI. CloudMinds publishes no OpenAPI and no public REST API; its machine-readable contract
  is gRPC/protobuf3 — 14 services and 88 RPCs across robot control, navigation, configuration, TTS, skill dispatch, speech
  recognition, vision recognition and NLU — shipped as compiled descriptors inside the first-party Python SDK. The US-facing
  cloudminds.com domain no longer answers; the live corporate surface is dataarobotics.com. Added to the U.S. BIS Entity List
  in May 2020.

  name: HARIX Robot Skill API (gRPC)
  description: The gRPC surface a HARIX skill application uses to drive a CloudMinds cloud robot and to consume HARIX cloud
    AI. Five robotSkillApi services cover control (move/rotate/stop/emergency-stop, RCU reboot/shutdown, intent + action dispatch),
    navigation (maps, locations, patrol routes, charging pile attach/detach), configuration, text-to-speech and operator hand-off;
    robotmind covers skill registration and action dispatch; skill.asr, skill.vision and skill.nlu cover speech recognition
    (unary + bidirectional streaming), thirteen vision detectors and intent detection; and the serviceapp package defines
    the callback services a skill app implements to receive recognition results and vision events pushed back from HARIX.
    No base URL is published — the SDK takes the gRPC target as a caller supplied parameter bound per robot deployment.

  x-base-url-note: No base URL is published. The first-party SDK constructs every stub with grpc.insecure_channel(grpc_url,
    options=[('grpc.default_authority', authority)]) where grpc_url and authority are supplied by the integrator, so the endpoint
    is per-deployment and CloudMinds documents no default host. Recorded as missing rather than guessed.

  note: Contract discovery beat the dead docs host. No OpenAPI exists, but the first-party harix 1.0.9 PyPI SDK carries compiled
    protobuf descriptors for the whole HARIX contract; decoded into grpc/ as 18 proto3 files, 14 services, 88 RPCs, 121 messages.
