Executive summary
Know Your Customer (Consumer) Demo scores 70.1/100: Needs work · Grade C. The weakest pillar is MCP readiness at 55; the strongest is SDK readiness for AI at 91. We recorded 375 finding instances: 0 critical, 7 high, 242 medium, and 126 low. Functional for AI-assisted builds. Broken for autonomous agents. Every finding lives in the specification, and the roadmap in this report orders the fixes by impact; resolving them projects the score to 100/100.

MCP Readiness
Whether your operations survive being turned into tools: distinct names, descriptions that carry what an agent must know, safe invocation semantics, auth, error recovery, and context budget

About this report. We evaluated the Know Your Customer (Consumer) Demo specification against thousands of deterministic rules we have refined over twelve years of building API tooling, supplemented by AI-based analysis. Every finding is reproducible from the spec itself, scored consistently, and paired with a concrete fix.
What's at stake
Residual risks to monitor
No active failures, but elevated risks remain. Continued improvement will bring these into the managed band.
