Kolide

Kolide is a device trust and endpoint security platform, now part of 1Password Extended Access Management. It enforces Zero Trust access by blocking non-compliant devices from authenticating into corporate applications through Okta, Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra, runs continuous security and compliance checks across Linux, macOS, Windows, iOS and Android endpoints, and maintains fleet-wide device inventory built on thousands of osquery-sourced data points. Its distinguishing philosophy is user-first remediation: rather than silently denying access, Kolide educates the end user about the specific problem on their device and guides them through fixing it themselves, cutting helpdesk load. The public developer surface is the K2 API at api.kolide.com — 65 REST operations across devices, people, groups, security checks, compliance issues, live osquery campaigns, approval queues, reporting tables and audit logs — published as OpenAPI 3.0 on dated version lines, with HMAC-signed webhooks, an OpenID Shared Signals Framework (CAEP) event stream, and a first-party MCP server.

Kolide publishes 17 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Admin Users API, Audit Logs API, Auth Logs API, and 14 more. Tagged areas include Company, B2B, Security, Device Trust, and Endpoint Security.

The Kolide catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Kolide’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 27 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):

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
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

8 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):

Contract Quality scores 57.7 — up to +10.6 composite points
Contract Governance scores 31.8 — up to +8.2 composite points
Developer Ergonomics scores 60.1 — up to +8.0 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.

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.

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 1

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.
