CAMARA Project
CAMARA is the Telco Global API Alliance — an open-source project hosted by the Linux Foundation that defines, builds, and tests a unified set of network APIs across the world's mobile operators. Working alongside the GSMA Open Gateway commercialization initiative, CAMARA produces operator-neutral OpenAPI 3.0 specifications for 60+ telco network capabilities including Number Verification, SIM Swap, Device Location, Quality on Demand, KYC, Carrier Billing, Edge Discovery, Device Status, SMS, and more — all published under Apache 2.0. The project is organized into Sandbox, Incubating, and Graduated sub-projects with cross-cutting Commonalities, Identity and Consent Management, and Release Management working groups. Major contributors include Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Telefonica, Vodafone, T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, KDDI, SK Telecom, China Mobile, and dozens of other operators and vendors.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles CAMARA Project the way a machine reads it — 79 machine-readable artifacts across 30 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — CAMARA Project scores 27.9/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 41/100 (agent aware). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile CAMARA Project
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for CAMARA Project. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 30
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Security Posture 2
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.
Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
