# Debut

> Debut (Debut Biotechnology, Inc.) is a San Diego biotechnology company founded in 2019
> that combines AI-driven molecular discovery, skin genomics and cell-free biomanufacturing
> to create novel cosmetic active ingredients and finished skincare formulations. Its
> BeautyORB platform screens billions of candidate molecules in silico; the company is
> vertically integrated from discovery through fermentation and formulation, selling
> ingredients and brand-ready products to beauty manufacturers and running its own
> direct-to-consumer skincare brand, DEINDE.
>
> Debut sells molecules, not software. As of 2026-08-12 debutbiotech.com publishes no
> developer program, no public API, no OpenAPI and no machine-readable contract of any
> kind. Its one agent-reachable API surface is the Shopify-hosted Universal Commerce
> Protocol (UCP) MCP endpoint on the DEINDE storefront.

## APIs

- [DEINDE Commerce (UCP MCP)](https://www.deinde.com/api/ucp/mcp): The store's agent
  commerce endpoint, JSON-RPC 2.0 over MCP, UCP version 2026-04-08. An anonymous
  `tools/list` returns 13 tools with complete JSON Schema inputs — `search_catalog`,
  `lookup_catalog`, `get_product`, `create_cart`, `get_cart`, `update_cart`, `cancel_cart`,
  `create_checkout`, `get_checkout`, `update_checkout`, `complete_checkout`,
  `cancel_checkout`, `get_order`. No API key and no registration. Every call requires a
  `meta["ucp-agent"].profile` URI; `complete_checkout` additionally requires
  `meta["idempotency-key"]` and contemporaneous buyer approval.

This is platform-provided commerce plumbing served from Debut's own host, not first-party
Debut engineering. Nothing exposes the BeautyORB discovery platform, the skin-genomics
dataset, or the formulation pipeline.

## Discovery

- [UCP merchant profile](https://www.deinde.com/.well-known/ucp): versions, MCP endpoint,
  capabilities, payment handlers.
- [Store agent instructions](https://www.deinde.com/llms.txt) and
  [agents.md](https://www.deinde.com/agents.md): the provider's own agent-facing
  documentation, saved verbatim in this repo.
- [OAuth 2.0 authorization server metadata](https://www.deinde.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server)
  (RFC 8414), [OpenID configuration](https://www.deinde.com/.well-known/openid-configuration),
  [protected resource metadata](https://www.deinde.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource)
  (RFC 9728).
- No A2A agent card and no security.txt on any Debut host — both `/.well-known/agent-card.json`
  and `/.well-known/agent.json` return 404 on debutbiotech.com and deinde.com.
