  Acres Manufacturing Company (also trading as Acres 4.0), of Las Vegas, Nevada, builds Foundation —
  a casino management system that connects directly to a slot machine's SAS port and streams every
  gaming-floor event in real time. Foundation carries the operator's cashless, bonusing, ticketing,
  loyalty and analytics products (FoundationHQ, Cashless Casino, Player Budget, Achievement Bonusing,
  Ticket In Bonus Out, Video Poker Analyzer, Guardian and Kai), and it is sold as an open platform:
  Acres publishes a Foundation App Store and gives third-party developers an event API onto the same
  floor data its own applications consume. The public developer surface is the Foundation Event
  Replay API — real-time and historical WebSocket streams of SAS 6.02 exception events, meter
  movements, machine info and player-card events, documented per version in the company's own
  acres4 GitHub organization — plus the AcresBLE iOS and Android SDKs, which let a partner mobile
  app card a player in and fund or cash out a slot or table over Bluetooth Low Energy. Foundation
  communication is TLS 1.3 and Acres states its APIs require mTLS for authentication.

  detail: >-
    Full public surface reached with no wall. The company publishes a real first-party API
    reference in its own acres4 GitHub organization — the Foundation Event Replay API, two
    WebSocket channels and an 80-packet-type data dictionary keyed to SAS 6.02 — plus two actively
    maintained AcresBLE mobile SDKs. What it does NOT publish is any machine-readable contract:
    no OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL SDL, Postman collection, MCP server, agent card or /.well-known/
    document was found on any host, and the documentation repository has had no commit since
    2020-06-16.

apis:
- name: Foundation Event Replay API
  description: >-
    WebSocket streaming API onto the Foundation event bus. Two channels are documented: a real-time
    event streamer that pushes every event as it is collected from the floor (backed by a rolling
    cache of up to 10,000 events or 10 minutes, whichever is smaller, reachable with the start_idx
    filter), and a historical event streamer that replays a bounded window by nanosecond Unix
    timestamp or by global index. Both accept the same filter set as query parameters —
    sas_codes (SAS 6.02 Appendix A Table A-1 exception codes, decimal), asset_number,
    sas_serial_number, start_idx and limit — and both emit flattened JSON packets carrying a type,
    the EGM serial and asset number, the player card number and host player id, event and cache
    timestamps, a global idx ordering field, and per-packet data and meters maps. The host is
    per-property: <property> is the subdomain of the casino running Foundation, so the base URL is
    templated rather than a single vendor-operated endpoint. Requests that are not upgraded to a
    WebSocket are rejected with HTTP 400.
  humanURL: https://github.com/acres4/foundation-documentation/blob/master/apis/event/1.4/usage.md
  baseURL: wss://{property}.kailabor.com/nex7/sas-reader/ws
  x-baseurl-note: >-
    Templated per casino property, exactly as the provider documents it — <property> is the
    subdomain for the casino running Foundation (the docs' own example is mycasino.kailabor.com).
    kailabor.com resolves (AWS-hosted, Route 53 nameservers) but has no root site; there is no
    shared multi-tenant host to record and none was invented.

- name: AcresBLE SDK (Bluetooth Low Energy)
  description: >-
    First-party Bluetooth Low Energy SDK, published for iOS (Swift package) and Android (Kotlin),
    that lets a technology partner's mobile app talk directly to Acres BLE hardware on the casino
    floor. Two controllers are documented: an electronic card-in controller that inserts and removes
    a player card at an EGM's player interface (writing the card track and reading the busy
    characteristic), and a slot-and-table controller that finds a device advertising the machine
    information service above -65 dBm, reads its SAS serial, and — for table games — funds a table,
    requests a dealer cash-out, and cancels a suggested cash-out. There is no HTTP surface here; the
    contract is the BLE GATT characteristics the SDK wraps, so no baseURL is recorded.
