Cohort brief
Auto-generatedThe 176 providers in the APIs.io catalog tagged Library, scored on the Kin Score. Every figure below is computed from the catalog — nothing here is written.
| Facet | This cohort | Catalog | Difference | Scored |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Contract Quality | 33.5 | 17.6 | +15.9 | 176 |
| Access Clarity | 38.4 | 26.5 | +11.9 | 176 |
| Operational Transparency | 21 | 13.7 | +7.3 | 176 |
| Developer Ergonomics | 29 | 23.2 | +5.8 | 176 |
| Discoverability | 63.8 | 58.1 | +5.7 | 176 |
| Contract Governance | 11.7 | 6.3 | +5.4 | 176 |
A facet is averaged over the members that carry it, not over the whole cohort — the “Scored” column is that count. Averaging an absent facet as zero would score our own coverage gaps as the providers’ posture.
| Artifact | This cohort | Catalog | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP server (any) | 1% | 14% | -13 |

mcp_pct counts any mcp/ artifact including ones API Evangelist derived from the provider OpenAPI; mcp_first_party_pct counts only servers the provider publishes. Prefer the latter.
