Generated by API Evangelist on 2026-08-23. Seyond does not publish an llms.txt of its own
(https://seyond.com/llms.txt returns HTTP 404); this file is generated from the API Evangelist profile
and from live probes of Seyond's public surfaces. It is not authored or endorsed by Seyond.

## What developers can actually call

Seyond publishes **no web API**. There is no OpenAPI, GraphQL, gRPC or SOAP contract on any Seyond host.
The supported integration path is a client SDK that talks to a sensor on the local network:

- Seyond LiDAR Client SDK (C/C++): https://github.com/Seyond-Inc/inno-lidar-sdk — connects to a sensor by
  IP over a proprietary TCP command channel and UDP point-cloud stream. Supports Falcon-K1/K2/K24,
  Robin-W, Robin-E1X, Robin-E2 and HB-D1 on Linux, macOS, Windows and QNX. Latest release
  `release-3.103.13` (2026-07-24).
- SDK usage guide: https://github.com/Seyond-Inc/inno-lidar-sdk/blob/main/docs/HOW_TO_USE_CLIENT_SDK.md —
  the core call sequence is `inno_lidar_open_live()` → `inno_lidar_set_callbacks()` → `inno_lidar_start()`
  → `inno_lidar_stop()` → `inno_lidar_close()`.
- ROS / ROS 2 driver: https://github.com/Seyond-Inc/seyond_ros_driver — latest `v1.0.3` (2026-03-09).
  Not published to index.ros.org; build from source.
- Command-line tools shipped with the SDK: `innovusion_lidar_util` (sensor configuration), `get_pcd`
  (capture and convert point clouds), `check_net` (host-to-sensor network diagnostic), plus a Wireshark
  dissector for the sensor wire protocol.
- MetaView desktop viewer (Windows / macOS / Linux, v1.6.2) and the SDK tarball are behind an email gate
  at https://seyond.com/downloads/.

## Agent surface

- MCP endpoint: https://seyond.com/wp-json/mcp/mcp-oauth-server (live, OAuth-gated, HTTP 401 anonymous).
  It is served by the WordPress MCP adapter on Seyond's corporate site and exposes site/content
  abilities — not LiDAR control and not SIMPL traffic data. Seyond does not document it.
- OAuth discovery: https://seyond.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server (RFC 8414) and
  https://seyond.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource (RFC 9728). Authorization code + PKCE (S256),
  public clients, single scope `mcp`.
- No A2A agent card at /.well-known/agent-card.json or /.well-known/agent.json on any Seyond host.
- No llms.txt, no api-catalog, no ai-plugin.json, no security.txt.

## What is not available

- No developer portal, no API reference, no signup, no API keys, no sandbox, no status page, no SLA,
  no deprecation policy, no rate-limit documentation, no security.txt and no trust center.
- api.seyond.com is live (nginx behind an AWS load balancer) and answers `GET /health` with `ok`, but
  returns HTTP 404 on every discovery path probed, including /openapi.json, /swagger.json, /api-docs,
  /v3/api-docs, /graphql and every /.well-known/* path. Whatever SIMPL serves there is not publicly
  described.
- innovusion.com, the pre-rebrand domain, no longer resolves.
