Cornerstone Building Brands

Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc. is a Fortune 1000 manufacturer of exterior building products in North America — vinyl siding and accessories, metal and rainware, fence and railing, windows and entry doors, and metal roofs, walls and buildings — sold under brands including Ply Gem, Simonton and Mastic through dealers, distributors and builders rather than as software. It operates no developer program and publishes no API documentation, SDK or developer portal: the hosts its earlier catalog record named, developer.cornerstonebuildingbrands.com and api.cornerstonebuildingbrands.com, do not resolve. Its machine-readable surface is what the corporate WordPress estate on www.cornerstonebuildingbrands.com exposes — an anonymously readable WordPress REST content API (press releases, industry pages, leadership profiles, pages, media, taxonomies and search) and, notably for a manufacturer, a live remote Model Context Protocol server published through the WordPress MCP Adapter, advertised by real RFC 8414 authorization-server metadata and RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata, with tools/list OAuth-gated. The company's partner-facing integration surface — orders, ASNs, warranty claims — sits behind the Windows & Doors Customer Portal, which signs in with Microsoft Entra ID over an Azure API Management gateway whose developer portal is unpublished.

Cornerstone Building Brands publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Building Products, Construction, Manufacturing, Building Materials, and MCP.

Cornerstone Building Brands’ developer surface includes support, signup flow, authentication, and 27 more developer resources.

scored 2026-09-25 · rubric v0.23.0
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/cornerstone-building-brands: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

    404s). The live tool set could not be enumerated: anonymous initialize and tools/list both return HTTP 401 (mcp_unauthorized
    on the OAuth server, rest_forbidden on the default adapter server), as does the wp-abilities/v1 registry that backs the
