Zeroheight

zeroheight is a design system platform where teams document components, patterns, guidelines and design tokens in a styleguide, then deliver that documentation to designers, engineers and AI agents. It exposes two machine surfaces: a small key-authenticated REST API (https://zeroheight.com/open_api/v2) covering styleguides, pages, page content, page statuses, versions, categories and token sets, and a substantially richer Model Context Protocol server, hosted at https://mcp.zeroheight.com/mcp and also shipped as the npm package @zeroheight/mcp-server, which lets a coding or prototyping agent read a team's design system directly. Design tokens export in W3C DTCG format and through stable per-set Style Dictionary URLs usable as build-pipeline endpoints.

Zeroheight publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Design Systems, Design Tokens, Documentation, MCP, and Agent Readiness.

Zeroheight’s developer surface includes developer portal, support, engineering blog, CLI, authentication, changelog, documentation, and 33 more developer resources.

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.

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/zeroheight: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
