description: >-
  Versioning, availability and change posture for a product in public paid beta. Infer runs a
  machine-readable status resource and a per-service health list, and its Terms carry explicit change
  and notice commitments. It publishes no deprecation policy, no Sunset/Deprecation headers and no
  SLA — and it is unusually direct that route continuity is "a routing objective, not an uptime"
  promise.
maturity: public paid beta
api_version: '0.4.0'
versioning:
  style: path-prefixed major surface (/v1) plus an info.version document version
  version_header: none
  date_pinning: none
  deprecated_operations: []
  deprecated_operations_note: >-
    No operation, parameter or schema in the published contract carries deprecated: true. Derived from
    openapi/infer-by-flow7-public-api-openapi.yml.
  price_versioning:
    present: true
    mechanism: price_version string per selector per tier, echoed on the response and the receipt
    contract: >-
      Terms: "The recorded price version controls an accepted request." Prices may change
      prospectively; an accepted request is priced at its locked version.
deprecation:
  policy_published: false
  sunset_header: false
  deprecation_header: false
  rfc8594: false
  provider_statements:
    - >-
      Terms: "settings, prices, and availability may change. Infer may remove or restrict a model or
      route immediately when required by law, security, [or] supplier ... risk."
    - >-
      Terms: "Infer may update a model registry when upstream terms change ... When practicable,
      Infer will give advance notice of materially adverse changes. You must stop using an affected
      model if you [are notified]."
    - >-
      Terms section 18: Infer may update the Terms by posting a new version with an effective date;
      for a materially adverse change it will provide reasonable email or dashboard notice when
      practicable.
  assessment: >-
    Model-level removal is explicitly immediate and at Infer's discretion. There is no operation-level
    deprecation window, because the volatile surface here is the model registry, not the four
    endpoints. A consumer's real deprecation risk is a selector disappearing, which is why the
    catalog and status resources are the load-bearing lifecycle artifacts.
status_page:
  html: https://infer.flow7.org/status
  machine_readable: https://infer.flow7.org/api/public/status
  media_type: application/json
  authenticated: false
  status_at_probe: operational
  services_at_probe: 22
  fields:
    - environment (sandbox | live)
    - simulated (boolean — distinguishes sandbox health from live service health)
    - updated_at (RFC 3339)
    - status (operational | partial_outage | unavailable)
    - services[] (per-service status and p95_latency_ms)
    - note
  third_party_status_vendor: none
  note: >-
    A first-party JSON status resource with per-model p95 latency, declared in the RFC 9727
    api-catalog as the status link relation for /v1/responses. Infer instructs clients — and its own
    published agent skills instruct agents — to read it immediately before any paid request.
sla:
  published: false
  uptime_commitment: none
  provider_statement: >-
    Terms describe redundancy and continuity as "a routing objective, not an uptime" guarantee. The
    :stable price option is described as "continuity through a redundancy-oriented route pool", which
    is a best-effort posture rather than a credited SLA.
  service_credits: >-
    Refund Policy section 3: Infer may issue service credit for a service issue where lawful, but
    service credit does not replace a legally required cash refund.
availability_semantics:
  published_repeatedly: true
  rule: >-
    "A published catalog entry is not proof that a route is callable." Repeated in llms.txt, in the
    OpenAPI operation descriptions, on /docs, on /compatibility and inside all three published agent
    skills. Machine-actionable availability comes from GET /api/public/status and, for an
    authenticated key, GET /v1/models.
  official_tier_caveat: >-
    Every :official selector published a price but returned available=false at probe time — the
    clearest demonstration of the rule in the provider's own data.

    an unusually explicit continuity-of-operator clause for a product this young.
