Naftiko builds spec-driven integration software for AI agents. Its two Apache 2.0 Java engines — Ikanos, a capability engine, and Polychro, a polyglot spec linter — let a team declare a slice of its business in a single YAML capability file and serve it simultaneously over MCP, Agent Skill, REST and a Control port without writing or compiling code. A capability consumes the HTTP APIs an organisation already has, structures their responses into clean JSON, then aggregates and orchestrates those operations into one governed contract for agents, applications and partners. Naftiko operates no hosted API of its own: it distributes software customers run on their own infrastructure, so this profile catalogs a published JSON Schema, a governance ruleset, a CLI, container images and Maven artifacts rather than endpoints and API keys. Four editions are published — Community (free forever, Apache 2.0), Developer and Team (managed hosting, in development) and Enterprise (Warden and Skipper, design partners) — none of them carrying a published price.
Naftiko is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Ai Data, API Integration, API Governance, and MCP.
The Naftiko catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Naftiko’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, CLI, changelog, pricing, support, and 25 more developer resources.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
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 github.com/api-evangelist/naftiko: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

apis: []
x-apis-note: 'Deliberately empty, and this is a measurement rather than an unfinished harvest. Naftiko publishes no OpenAPI,
no AsyncAPI, no GraphQL schema and no hosted API. STEP 0b contract discovery was run in full against naftiko.io, shipyard.naftiko.io,
ikanos.io, polychro.io, mocks.naftiko.net, api.naftiko.io and app.naftiko.io: naftiko.io hard-404s every spec path, shipyard.naftiko.io
is a single-page app whose catch-all answers 200 with a 760-byte HTML shell for every path (recorded as misses, not hits),
ikanos.io and polychro.io are 302 vanity redirects into that same SPA, api. and app. do not resolve in DNS, and mocks.naftiko.net
answers 401 on every path. Three HTTP surfaces are documented but none is a Naftiko-operated endpoint with a base URL: the
Control port on a running capability (default localhost:9090), the Skill Server (default localhost:9700), and the MCP server
the engine generates from the customer''s own capability YAML. All three run on the customer''s infrastructure and are recorded
in conventions/, skills/ and mcp/ respectively. The 136 OpenAPI files in naftiko/sandboxes describe third-party APIs (Anthropic,
Slack, GitHub, Google and others) used as mock fixtures; they were not harvested as Naftiko contracts.'

x-pointers-deliberately-withheld:
description: Recorded so a later round does not "fix" these as oversights. Each is a canonical pointer the rating reads,
each has an artifact in this repo that superficially supports it, and each was withheld because the underlying thing is
a product feature Naftiko sells rather than a commitment Naftiko makes about a surface of its own.
withheld:
- type: Idempotency
why: The capability schema defines an `idempotent` boolean in two places ($defs.Semantics and $defs.McpToolHints), but
those are declarations a capability AUTHOR makes about their own tools. Naftiko exposes no callable surface, publishes
no idempotency-key header and states no replay contract, so the agent-readiness question — can an agent safely retry
a call to this provider — has no subject. See conventions/.
- type: SDKs
why: packages/ holds 8 genuine first-party distributions, but they are the product itself (engine, CLI, linter, container
image, IDE extension), not client libraries for an API. Naftiko's own roadmap lists "Client SDK generation in the Ikanos
CLI (TypeScript, Python, Java, Go)" as unshipped future work. Packages is wired; SDKs is not.
- type: WellKnown
why: well-known/naftiko-well-known.yml documents zero documents across six hosts. The shipyard SPA returns HTTP 200 for
every /.well-known/* path with an HTML shell; those were recorded as misses. A pointer would assert Naftiko serves a
discovery surface it does not serve.
- type: SecurityTxt
why: No security.txt on any host, and no SECURITY.md in naftiko/ikanos or the org .github repo.
- type: Security
why: probe-security-programs.py found no vulnerability-disclosure policy, no security@ contact, no disclosure page and
no bug-bounty programme. Nothing to point at.
- type: Compliance
why: The only place SOC 2, PCI, NIST and GDPR appear is the Enterprise column of the editions table, describing continuous
compliance the PRODUCT would let a customer enforce over their own capabilities. Naftiko publishes no trust centre,
certification or audit report of its own.
- type: StatusPage
why: status.naftiko.io does not resolve. With Community running on customer infrastructure, none would apply until managed
hosting ships.
- type: AgentCard
why: Probed /.well-known/agent-card.json and the legacy /.well-known/agent.json on every host — 404 on naftiko.io, SPA
shell on shipyard.naftiko.io, 302 on ikanos.io, 401 on mocks.naftiko.net. A2A is a roadmap item, not a shipped adapter.
Per pipeline rule, nothing was written to a2a/ at all.
- type: AsyncAPI
why: AsyncAPI has a Naftiko glossary entry claiming support, but no asyncapi path exists anywhere in the shipped schema,
CLI or repository tree, and a webhook server adapter is still listed as future work. A documentation-versus-implementation
gap, not an event surface.
- type: Signup
why: No account signup exists — nothing is purchasable. Community is a download; Developer and Team are in development;
Enterprise is a demo request.
- type: PostmanWorkspace
why: No public Postman workspace or collection found for Naftiko, Ikanos or Polychro.
