Zhejiang University (浙江大学, ZJU) is a comprehensive public research university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China — a C9 League and Double First-Class institution, ranked in the QS World University Rankings top 50, with strengths across AI, engineering, medicine, agriculture and the sciences. ZJU operates no central developer portal, no open data portal, no institution-operated research data repository and no documented public application API. Its verified institution-operated programmable footprint is three surfaces, all under its own zju.edu.cn registrable domain: a public open source software mirror at mirrors.zju.edu.cn that publishes a genuinely machine-readable service catalog (the MirrorZ data contract, 63 mirrored repositories, anonymous read); a Shibboleth SAML 2.0 Identity Provider registered in CARSI and reachable through eduGAIN; and a CAS unified single sign-on platform. Everything else on the public estate is either vendor software running on a ZJU hostname — the Huiwen library catalog, the undergraduate teaching management platform, the faculty profile system — or is gated behind campus network access. The library catalog has been deliberately withdrawn from the public internet. No OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL, MCP server, agent card, robots.txt, security.txt or llms.txt is published anywhere on the institution's own surface.
