This file is generated by API Evangelist from the public profile at https://github.com/api-evangelist/ai-bank — it is not published by AI Bank. ## API surface AI Bank publishes **no public API contract**. As of 2026-08-06 there is no developer portal, no API reference, no OpenAPI/AsyncAPI/GraphQL/Postman artifact, and no `/.well-known/` discovery document reachable without a partner relationship. The bank markets an open-banking / embedded-finance capability, but integration is arranged through business agreements rather than public self-service onboarding. - `open.aibank.com` resolves in DNS (119.253.84.40) but does not accept connections from the public internet. - `open.citicaibank.cn` resolves in DNS (180.76.200.49) with the same behaviour. - Every `/.well-known/*`, `/openapi.json`, `/swagger.json`, `/api-docs`, `/graphql` and `/mcp` path on `www.aibank.com` and `www.citicaibank.cn` answers HTTP 200 with a catch-all marketing shell that is byte-identical to a control path that cannot exist. Those 200s are soft 404s, not documents. ## Sites - [AI Bank corporate site](https://www.aibank.com/): 中信百信银行门户网站 — the bank's own portal. - [CITIC aiBank alternate portal](https://www.citicaibank.cn/): same content served on the .cn domain. ## Artifacts in this profile - [Domain security](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/ai-bank/refs/heads/main/security/ai-bank-domain-security.yml): probed TLS/DNS posture for aibank.com. - [Well-known probe record](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/ai-bank/refs/heads/main/well-known/ai-bank-well-known.yml): the soft-404 control diff, so no future round credits a false 200. - [apis.yml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/ai-bank/refs/heads/main/apis.yml): the APIs.json profile.
