  Vatn Systems publishes no machine-readable contract (no OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL SDL, Protobuf or
  WSDL was found on any host on 2026-09-02), so nothing here is derived from a spec. Every entry below
  is a claim made in prose on Vatn's own product pages, and each is graded on that basis. The
  domain_standard_conformance dimension the rubric reads requires the standard to be DECLARED IN THE
  CONTRACT; because there is no contract, that dimension is not satisfiable for this provider today
  even though the TAK integration claim is real and specific.

      "Vatn's ATAK plugin gives operators real-time control of the entire fleet via Android tablet or
      phone, integrating directly into existing command and control systems... Available on CivTAK,
      MilTAK, and WinTAK."
  note: >-
    The strongest domain-standard signal Vatn publishes. AEsir is separately described as "TAK-Native"
    and able to "leverage TAK as both a communications backbone and an operator interface". No CoT
    message schema, plugin manifest or integration reference is published publicly.

      "Open Integration. Engineering display included. Open source protocol for pushing results into
      custom topside applications."
  note: >-
    THIS IS THE SINGLE BIGGEST PUBLISHING GAP AT VATN. The product page asserts an open-source protocol
    for pushing FUSE tracking results into third-party topside applications, but no protocol
    specification, schema, repository or reference could be found. The company's GitHub organization
    (github.com/Vatn-Systems, created 2023-10-02, blog field vatnsystems.com) has zero public
    repositories. Publishing that protocol - as a schema, an AsyncAPI, or simply a repo - would convert
    a marketing claim into a verifiable integration contract.
- id: oauth2
  conforms: false
  evidence: 'no OAuth surface; /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server returned 404'
- id: oidc
  conforms: false
  evidence: 'no OIDC surface; /.well-known/openid-configuration returned 404'
- id: rfc9457
  conforms: false
  evidence: no HTTP API published, so no problem+json error envelope exists
