It updates itself when the score changes. Paste this where you link to your API docs:
<a href="https://apis.io/providers/thenile/"><img src="https://apis.io/badge/thenile/card.svg" alt="Nile on APIs.io — Kin Score by API Evangelist"></a>Other styles, a README pill and a shields.io endpoint are on the badge page.
- 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 - 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
- Documented Reversibility +6 pts — a reversal operation in the contract, graded up when a window is documented too
- Operational Transparency scores 2.6 — up to +12.7 composite points
- Developer Ergonomics scores 43.5 — up to +11.3 composite points
- Contract Governance scores 22.0 — up to +9.4 composite points
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Retrieval, Vector and RAG | builds-on | 46.0 | - | - |
| Jamstack Hosting Integrations (Vercel Marketplace and Netlify Integrations publishers) | builds-on | 46.0 | - | - |
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.
