Harbinger Health

Harbinger Health is a Cambridge, Massachusetts biotechnology company founded out of Flagship Pioneering's Flagship Labs in 2018 that is building blood-based early cancer detection on the premise that the earliest phases of oncogenesis are marked by the reactivation of core developmental programs. Its proprietary Harbinger HX platform pairs cell-free DNA methylation assay chemistry tuned for low tumour fraction with machine learning operating under biologically informed constraints, and supports cancer signal detection, tumour content estimation and tissue-of-origin inference. RESOLVE, the company's clinical application of that platform, is positioned to generate clarity in the uncertain window between suspicion of cancer and diagnosis, across cancer types and clinical contexts, and is run out of a CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited high-complexity laboratory. The company raised a 100 million dollar round to expand its blood-based detection suite and is led by CEO Ajit Singh with Chief Innovation Officer Tony Shuber, a co-founder of Exact Sciences. Harbinger Health's API posture is minimal and clinical rather than commercial: there is no developer portal, no published documentation, no OpenAPI, no SDKs, no pricing and no self-serve API access, and the developer., docs., api., portal., status. and trust. subdomains do not resolve. What it does publish is unusual for a company with no developer programme - the corporate site serves a live, anonymously readable WordPress REST API (268 routes across 15 namespaces), an RFC 8414 OAuth 2.1 authorization-server metadata document, an RFC 9728 protected-resource document, and a real Model Context Protocol server namespace gated behind an mcp scope, alongside the WordPress Abilities API. That makes Harbinger Health machine-discoverable at the agent layer while none of its clinical, laboratory or diagnostic capability is exposed programmatically to third parties.

Harbinger Health publishes 2 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Health, Healthcare, Biotechnology, Cancer Detection, and Diagnostics.

The Harbinger Health catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Harbinger Health’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, YouTube channel, authentication, code examples, and 31 more developer resources.

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-11-06 · rubric v0.27.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health 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):
  • Machine-Readable Contract +18 pts — api_specs includes an OpenAPI document
  • 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
  • Rate-Limit Signaling +7 pts — OpenAPI responses document X-RateLimit-* / RateLimit headers (verified), else a rate_limits artifact or RateLimits link (documented)
  • Registration Without a Human +6 pts — a `registration_endpoint` in the served RFC 8414 / OIDC discovery document
  • Typed Event Surface +6 pts — AsyncAPI document, OR webhooks/callbacks objects in the as-published OpenAPI, OR common[].type includes Webhooks

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.

    exposing two servers - mcp-oauth-server and mcp-adapter-default-server - over POST/GET/DELETE. It is protected by a real
    OAuth 2.1 deployment: https://harbinger-health.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server returns RFC 8414 metadata (authorization
    code with PKCE S256, refresh tokens, public clients, client ID metadata documents) and https://harbinger-health.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource
    returns RFC 9728 metadata naming the MCP server as the protected resource with a single mcp scope. An anonymous tools/list
    JSON-RPC call returns HTTP 401 mcp_unauthorized, so the tool catalogue and its input schemas require an authenticated
    introspection; the tool set is almost certainly drawn from the WordPress Abilities API registered at wp-abilities/v1,
