name: Secton API
description: >-
  Secton API is the OpenAI-compatible inference surface from Secton, a small developer-tools company
  operating at secton.org. It publishes two REST operations — POST /v1/chat/completions, with optional
  incremental streaming, and GET /v1/models — behind a static API key issued in the Secton Console and
  sent in the Authorization header. A first-party TypeScript SDK ("secton" on npm) wraps chat, model
  listing, credit usage and client-side conversation context management. Secton announced a permanent
  shutdown of the API on 2025-11-18 with an end date of 2025-12-19, yet the host, the OpenAPI and the
  status page remain live and the Console Terms of Service governing API keys were re-issued effective
  2026-08-06 — see lifecycle/secton-api-lifecycle.yml before building on it.

    note: >-
      Each artifact below exists on disk and records a real, evidenced ABSENCE. No canonical pointer
      is wired for it, because the pointer would assert a surface Secton does not serve.
    MCPServer: mcp/secton-api-mcp.yml — no MCP server exists; the file holds a derived candidate tool list only
    WellKnown: well-known/secton-api-well-known.yml — every /.well-known/ path misses on every host
    SecurityTxt: no security.txt is served, despite an active HackerOne disclosure intake
    AgentCard: no agent card at /.well-known/agent-card.json or /.well-known/agent.json on any host
    Idempotency: conventions/secton-api-conventions.yml — no idempotency key on the billable POST
    ChangeLog: changelog/secton-api-changelog.yml — no API changelog or release notes are published
    Pricing: plans/secton-api-plans-pricing.yml — no pricing page exists (secton.org/pricing 404s)
    Compliance: conformance/secton-api-conformance.yml — no certification or audit is published
    TrustCenter: no trust centre; trust.secton.org does not resolve
    AsyncAPI: no event, webhook or message surface — genuinely N/A, streaming is in-band
    OAuthScopes: authentication is a single all-or-nothing API key; there is no scope surface
    ToolCrosswalk: nothing to cross-walk without an MCP or GraphQL surface
