HashiCorp Nomad

HashiCorp Nomad is a flexible workload orchestrator that enables organizations to deploy and manage containers, legacy applications, and batch jobs across any infrastructure. The Nomad developer platform provides a comprehensive HTTP API, official SDKs, and tooling for automating job scheduling, cluster management, and service orchestration at scale.

agent aware

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles HashiCorp Nomad the way a machine reads it — 73 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, 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 — HashiCorp Nomad scores 41.4/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 21/100 (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. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

How we profile HashiCorp Nomad

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for HashiCorp Nomad. 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 22

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.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

The HashiCorp Nomad Go SDK is the official Go client library for interacting with the Nomad HTTP API. It provides a high-level, idiomatic Go interface for managing jobs, allocat...

Endpoints for managing Access Control List policies, tokens, and authentication methods.

HashiCorp Nomad Agent API

Endpoints for interacting with the local Nomad agent, including health checks, member listing, and server management.

HashiCorp Nomad Allocations API

Endpoints for querying allocations. An allocation declares that a set of tasks in a job should be run on a particular node.

HashiCorp Nomad Deployments API

Endpoints for querying and managing deployments. Deployments track the rolling update of allocations between two versions of a job.

HashiCorp Nomad Evaluations API

Endpoints for querying evaluations. Evaluations are the mechanism by which Nomad makes scheduling decisions.

HashiCorp Nomad Jobs API

Endpoints for listing, creating, reading, updating, and deleting jobs. Jobs are the primary unit of work in Nomad.

HashiCorp Nomad Namespaces API

Endpoints for managing namespaces, which segment jobs and their associated objects.

HashiCorp Nomad Node Pools API

Endpoints for managing node pools, which group nodes for scheduling constraints.

HashiCorp Nomad Nodes API

Endpoints for querying and managing client nodes registered with the Nomad cluster.

HashiCorp Nomad Operator API

Endpoints for cluster-level operations such as Raft peer management and autopilot configuration.

HashiCorp Nomad Regions API

Endpoints for listing known regions in the Nomad cluster.

HashiCorp Nomad Scaling API

Endpoints for querying scaling policies and their status.

HashiCorp Nomad Search API

Endpoints for searching across Nomad objects by prefix or fuzzy match.

HashiCorp Nomad Service API

The Service API from HashiCorp Nomad — 1 operation(s) for service.

HashiCorp Nomad Services API

The Services API from HashiCorp Nomad — 1 operation(s) for services.

HashiCorp Nomad Status API

Endpoints for querying the status of the Nomad cluster including leader and peer information.

HashiCorp Nomad System API

Endpoints for system maintenance operations such as garbage collection and reconciliation.

HashiCorp Nomad Variables API

Endpoints for managing Nomad variables, which store encrypted key-value data.

HashiCorp Nomad Volumes API

Endpoints for managing CSI and host volumes attached to Nomad allocations.

Postman Collections 19

A runnable collection turns the contract into something a developer can execute in seconds. We profile them because the fastest way to trust an API is to make a real call against it.

Ready-to-run Postman collections for exercising this provider's APIs.

Open Collections 21

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

Open, tool-agnostic API collections (OpenAPI-derived and Bruno).

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the things the Kin Score reads for access clarity — renamed from commercial clarity in rubric 0.12, because a free statutory interface has access terms and no commercial ones.

Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

FinOps 1

Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

HashiCorp Nomad Event Stream

The Nomad Event Stream provides a way to subscribe to Job, Allocation, Evaluation, Deployment, Node, Node Pool, and Service changes in near real time. The /v1/event/stream endpo...

Semantic Vocabularies 1

JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.

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.

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.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of HashiCorp Nomad, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
