Dascena
Dascena was an Oakland, California health-technology company that built machine-learning diagnostic and clinical decision support algorithms for hospitals, most notably InSight, a sepsis prediction model that scored electronic health record vitals and labs in real time to flag patients at risk hours before onset, plus FDA breakthrough-designated models for acute kidney injury and gastrointestinal bleeding. The algorithms were delivered as an embedded integration inside a customer hospital's EHR under a services and laboratory agreement rather than as a public developer API, so the company never operated a developer portal, published a machine-readable contract, or shipped client SDKs. CirrusDx acquired the Dascena Labs laboratory business effective 5 August 2022 and the company identity now trades as DBA CirrusDx; the dascena.com domain no longer resolves.

- Machine-Readable Contract +18 pts — api_specs includes an OpenAPI document
- MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
- Agentic Access Contract +10 pts — agentic_access artifact present (x-agentic-access), graded by author
- Machine-Readable Auth +10 pts — a served openid-configuration/oauth-authorization-server carrying `issuer` (served), else the securitySchemes class in the provider OpenAPIs — bound (mutualTLS, DPoP, Signature) > negotiable (oauth2 authorizationCode/clientCredentials, openIdConnect) > bearer (http bearer, apiKey)
- 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)
- Stable Error Semantics +8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes

for acute kidney injury and gastrointestinal bleeding. The algorithms were delivered as an embedded integration inside a
customer hospital's EHR under a services and laboratory agreement rather than as a public developer API, so the company

reason: defunct
detail: dascena.com still holds a live GoDaddy registration delegating to four Route 53 nameservers, but the hosted zone
behind them is gone, so every public resolver returns SERVFAIL and no HTTP request to any Dascena host can complete; the
laboratory business was acquired by CirrusDx in August 2022 and the successor host serves no developer surface either.
