Election Assistance Commission

The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is an independent, bipartisan federal commission established by the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA). It adopts the Voluntary Voting System Guidelines, accredits voting system test laboratories, certifies voting systems, administers and audits HAVA grant funds, and is the national clearinghouse for election administration information. The EAC publishes no developer portal, no API documentation and no API key programme, but serves two real anonymous machine surfaces it does not advertise: a live read-only JSON:API 1.0 at https://www.eac.gov/jsonapi (Drupal 10, 216 resource types) carrying the certified voting system register, accredited test labs, manufacturers, Engineering Change Orders, Notices of Clarification, NVRA state pages, per-state registration deadlines, HAVA grant financials and 561 Clearinghouse Awards; and a Project Open Data v1.1 catalog at https://www.eac.gov/data.json listing the EAVS bulk datasets. Both verified.

Election Assistance Commission publishes 15 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Block API, Block Content API, Contact Form API, and 12 more. Tagged areas include Federal Government, Elections, Voting, Open Data, and Voting Systems.

The Election Assistance Commission catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Election Assistance Commission’s developer surface includes documentation, engineering blog, support, and 22 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Government & Public Sector 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 does not apply to this provider. The published contracts declare no write operations, and a read-only API cannot create-or-update. The facet is excluded from this provider's denominator entirely — not scored zero. A reference or data API is not deficient for being unable to upsert.

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/.

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

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
A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Registration Without a Human +6 pts — a `registration_endpoint` in the served RFC 8414 / OIDC discovery document
Delegated User Identity +6 pts — a served discovery document listing authorization_code in grant_types_supported (served), else an oauth2 authorizationCode flow or openIdConnect declared in an OpenAPI (documented)
Typed Event Surface +6 pts — AsyncAPI document, OR webhooks/callbacks objects in the as-published OpenAPI, OR common[].type includes Webhooks

4 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

Access Clarity scores 10.5 — up to +17.9 composite points
Developer Ergonomics scores 30.4 — up to +13.9 composite points
Contract Quality scores 46.7 — up to +13.3 composite points

Each check links to what satisfies it. Publish the artifact, or tell us where it already lives, and the score moves on the next scoring run.

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 the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/election-assistance-commission/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/election-assistance-commission to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.

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
Open Data Portals (CKAN / DCAT)	undeclared	-	-	-
US Federal API Programs (api.data.gov, Login.gov, GSA MAS, FedRAMP)	undeclared	-	-	-

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.

Standards implemented 2

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.

tagged — the provider's own APIs.json carries the standard as a tag; implementation not verified
