    Fidelity Private Sharesnone0/10

    Fidelity Private Shares is a web-based equity/cap-table management platform with no documented API, CLI, or headless automation capability; probes for llms.txt, docs.md, and OpenAPI specs all returned 404, and no evidence describes CI/scriptable usage.

    Ledgy's API supports non-interactive, machine-to-machine authentication via OAuth 2.0 client_credentials with service accounts, which enables scripted/CI-style access without a human login (ledgy-docs-1, ledgy-docs-18, ledgy-docs-19). However, the documented API surface is very limited (only `auth` and `companyCaptable` operations), no CLI, SDK, or CI-specific tooling is evidenced, and llms.txt/openapi probes both 404, suggesting thin machine-readable API documentation. Missing for 10: a broader documented API/CLI for automating core workflows (grants, reports, compliance), explicit CI/automation examples, and discoverable OpenAPI spec.

      Ledgy documents a public API with OAuth 2.0 client_credentials auth, service accounts, and specific operations (auth, companyCaptable) that can be driven programmatically, which supports AI-native automation. However, probes show no discoverable OpenAPI spec or llms.txt, and only two operations are evidenced, suggesting limited API surface documentation for broader agentic use.

      Ledgy supports OAuth 2.0 service accounts with credentials 'scoped per integration', short-lived tokens, immediate revocation, and a client_credentials grant flow, which are solid least-privilege primitives that could be used to provision an agent's credentials. However, there's no evidence of fine-grained scope/permission configuration (e.g., read-only vs write, specific data-domain scopes) or any agent-specific tooling/framing. Missing for 10: granular permission-scope controls beyond 'per integration', explicit agent-oriented credential issuance workflow, and independent corroboration of least-privilege enforcement.

                                Docs explicitly describe a Gusto integration that syncs hiring, onboarding, and equity data, eliminating duplicate entry, and auto-granting equity from offer-letter promises, which directly supports the HRIS-sync story. However, evidence is limited to Gusto only (no Rippling or other payroll systems), and there's no explicit mention of termination events flowing into equity records. Missing for 10: explicit termination/offboarding sync, multi-HRIS support (e.g. Rippling), and independent confirmation of automatic new-hire equity creation beyond offer-letter promises.
