Drupal

Drupal is an open-source content management system written in PHP, used to build websites, applications and digital experiences for individuals, organizations, governments and enterprises worldwide. It is self-hosted software rather than a hosted service: Drupal core ships a JSON:API v1.0 surface and a RESTful Web Services surface that run on the operator’s own domain, and contributed modules add GraphQL and an MCP server. The Drupal Association itself operates one public read-only API, the Drupal.org REST API at https://www.drupal.org/api-d7, alongside a machine-readable release-history feed and a Composer package repository.

Drupal publishes 10 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Comments API, Files API, Node Articles API, and 7 more. Tagged areas include Content Management, CMS, Open Source, JSON:API, and GraphQL.

The Drupal catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Drupal’s developer surface includes engineering blog, authentication, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, signup flow, and 36 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 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/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):

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)
A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Request/Response Examples +7 pts — share of operations carrying request/response examples; else an Examples / Code Samples link
Typed Event Surface +6 pts — AsyncAPI document, OR webhooks/callbacks objects in the as-published OpenAPI, OR common[].type includes Webhooks
Documented Reversibility +6 pts — a reversal operation in the contract, graded up when a window is documented too
Agentic Commerce Well-Known Document +5 pts — a parsing /.well-known/ucp.json or acp.json declaring a version and at least one service, OR (0.27) a live x402 payment challenge from _data/x402-adoption.json — `self` when its endpoints are on the provider's own domain, `platform` when they are on a vendor's

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.

Market	Position	Depth	Registered MCP server	Declares compatibility
Content, Documentation and Design Platforms	gravity	51.8	-	1
Drupal Contributed-Module Ecosystem	gravity	51.8	-	1
Official SDKs on Packagist, pub.dev and Hex	gravity	51.8	-	1

Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.

description: 'Drupal is an open-source content management system written in PHP, used to build websites, applications and
  digital experiences for individuals, organizations, governments and enterprises worldwide. It is self-hosted software rather
  than a hosted service: Drupal core ships a JSON:API v1.0 surface and a RESTful Web Services surface that run on the operator’s
  own domain, and contributed modules add GraphQL and an MCP server. The Drupal Association itself operates one public read-only
  API, the Drupal.org REST API at https://www.drupal.org/api-d7, alongside a machine-readable release-history feed and a Composer
  package repository.'
