  note: >-
    Served from the apex, the same host as the OpenAPI servers[] entry. provider.organization is
    "Atomadic Tech" and provider.url is https://atomadic.tech, the card's url is
    https://atomadic.tech/a2a and its documentationUrl is the provider's quickstart — ownership is not
    in question. OWNERSHIP CAVEAT RECORDED: the first request of this session returned a DIFFERENT
    company's card from this exact URL ("Claix", url https://www.claix.dev/a2a, 20 skills); ten
    re-fetches over the following twenty minutes all returned the AAAA-Nexus card saved here. The
    saved body was checked for self-identification before saving. Two sibling hosts serve their own
    legacy-path cards (fuse.atomadic.tech and nexus.atomadic.tech, provider Atomadic Tech); they are
    saved alongside and graded below but the apex card is the one this pointer asserts.

grade_basis: >-
  Graded against A2A 1.0.0 hard checks: capabilities is an OBJECT (pass), protocolVersion is present
  and reads "1.0.0" (pass), skills is an ARRAY of 26 entries each with id/name/description/tags
  (pass). The optional fields are all present too — preferredTransport JSONRPC, defaultInputModes
  and defaultOutputModes each declared.
deviations:
- field: authentication / trialPolicy
  observed: top-level non-spec members (authentication.schemes [Bearer, APIKey, x402], trialPolicy)
  note: A2A 1.0.0 carries auth in securitySchemes/security; the card puts it in a custom `authentication` object and adds a `trialPolicy` object. Extra members are not a hard failure but a standard client will not read them.
- field: capabilities
  observed: x402Payment, freeTrial, freeTrialCallsPerEndpointPerDay alongside the spec members
  note: Vendor extensions inside capabilities without an `extensions[]` declaration.
- field: securitySchemes
  observed: absent
  note: No securitySchemes/security block despite the API requiring X-API-Key or an x402 proof on the endpoint the card names (GET /a2a answers 402).
- field: url
  observed: https://atomadic.tech/a2a answers 402 to an unpaid request
  note: Reachable and correctly advertised, but every A2A message costs 8000 micro-USDC (~$0.008); the card does not say so and an A2A client with no wallet cannot complete a handshake.
- field: description
  observed: '"146+ endpoints"'
  note: The published OpenAPI declares 149 operations, the live /v1/metrics says 119 endpoints, and the pricing manifest prices 89 paths of which 60 are absent from the contract. The number is marketing; the contract is the count.
sibling_cards:
- host: nexus.atomadic.tech
  path: /.well-known/agent.json
  file: a2a/atomadic-tech-nexus-agent-card.json
  name: atomadic-nexus
  version: 0.1.0
  skills: 25
  grade: flavored
  why: capabilities uses snake_case members (push_notifications, state_transition_history) and there is NO protocolVersion — fails a hard check. Its 25 skills match the 25 tools served by tools/list on https://nexus.atomadic.tech/mcp.
- host: fuse.atomadic.tech
  path: /.well-known/agent.json
  file: a2a/atomadic-tech-fuse-agent-card.json
  name: atomadic-fuse
  version: 1.2.0
  skills: 14
  grade: flavored
  why: Same shape defects as the nexus card (snake_case capabilities, no protocolVersion); the host's /mcp answers 401 without a Fuse Pro key.
