No agent-specific scopes, injection controls or security audit found. No SECURITY.md in the repository and getartcraft.com/.well-known/security.txt answered 404 on 11 November 2026 (0).\n- FLORA (68): OAuth with the authorisation code grant, PKCE (the metadata lists plain and S256, the docs S256), dynamic client registration, refresh tokens and revocation at the token endpoint, with no named scopes, no documented token lifetimes and no list of OAuth connections in FLORA's settings; API keys `ak_` scoped to chosen workspaces with Read, Write and Billing permissions, shown once, five at a time and revoked at once, with no expiry or rotation feature. Only the header form is documented (24 of 30). Read-only keys and per-workspace scoping, roles that cap what an agent can do, guests who cannot generate, spending caps per member, workspace, organisation and overage, and a quote-first rule; `flora_run_canvas_nodes` spends with no confirmation step (16 of 20). Agents read canvas prompts, comments, Techniques and files written by others; the security page says to treat them as data, to review the quote after reading shared content and to use least-privilege keys for unattended accounts, with no technical filtering described (11 of 15). Operators see spend by member in the app and through `flora_get_usage`, organisation usage exports through the API, `charged_cost` per run and failed webhook deliveries; FLORA's own MCP logs are not exposed to the operator (9 of 15). The trust centre lists SOC 2 Type 2, GDPR and CCPA (published 26 October 2026) with no report shown; no security.txt was found on flora.ai, and no disclosure policy or bug bounty for the service. The SDK's SECURITY.md points SDK reports at Stainless while its README says the SDK is generated by Fern (8 of 20). 24+16+11+9+8 = 68.\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: FLORA +54\n\n- ArtCraft (25): Repository documentation (10), product workflows (10), usage examples (5). No external-agent machine contract, input constraints or API error reference found on the pages read or in the repository (0).\n- FLORA (79): Platform with an MCP server and an API, read with the API and MCP lines. The API reference is generated from version 5.10.2 of FLORA's OpenAPI document and reproduces each operation's fields with types, enums, patterns and limits in Markdown, but the document itself is not published and the SDK's README says the generated code comes from it; MCP tool inputs are documented with types and constraints and were not seen live (15 of 25). llms.txt and a Markdown twin of every docs page (10). The tools reference says what each tool does and labels it read-only, writes, destructive, spends money or async, and the cost, runs and security pages say when not to call (`flora_run_canvas_nodes` spends with no confirmation, never re-fire a partial batch, stop on billing errors); per-tool descriptions are one line (16 of 20). Typed inputs with enums for `type` and `status`, prefixed id formats (ws_, prj_, run_, tech_), item and length limits and unknown keys rejected, but `params` is a free-form object whose names come from `flora_list_models` (11 of 15). An example call per tool, a REST error table with 13 codes and their retryability, the MCP failure shapes and run error codes, and the skills repository's failure-codes reference (14 of 15). Versioned path /v1 with the API version in the SDK changelog, a dated MCP changelog with entries from 28 May to 23 October 2026 and a retired-tools page; no version numbers on the MCP changelog and no written versioning policy (13 of 15). 15+10+16+11+14+13 = 79.\n\n### Agent ergonomics: FLORA +53\n\n- ArtCraft (15): Interactive composition and reusable references (10), documented setup (5). No external-agent output controls, retries or tool annotations found (0).\n- FLORA (68): MCP reading for context cost. 59 tools (56 callable by the model) with no toolsets or read-only subset; since 23 September 2026 the list is filtered to the account's access and `flora_list_tools` returns what the connection has (7 of 25). Cursor pagination with `limit` 1 to 100 on 10 REST list endpoints, history filters by workspace, project and status, `include_inputs` off by default, per-node and per-slide document reads, and up to 20 runs read in one call (17 of 20). One REST error envelope with `code`, `message` and field errors, retryability per code, a `Flora-Request-Id`, MCP failures grouped into retry now, retry later, change input and report, and retired tool names answering with their replacement (18 of 20). `Idempotency-Key` on every mutating REST request and a body key on Technique runs; every MCP tool carries readOnlyHint and destructiveHint annotations and spending tools are marked destructive; `quote: true` prices before running; the MCP create call has no idempotency key (16 of 20). Few required parameters (`project_id`, `type`, `prompt`, with the workspace resolved from the project) and an official TypeScript SDK and a Go CLI, but no SDK in a second language (10 of 15). 7+17+18+16+10 = 68.\n\n### Transparency \u0026 trust: FLORA +37\n\n- ArtCraft (31): Dual-licensed MIT OR Apache-2.0 since 10 October 2026, with third-party material listed in NOTICE (30). External model processing is identifiable (5). No privacy policy, retention statement or deprecation notice is linked from getartcraft.com, and telemetry isn't disclosed with an opt-out (0).\n- FLORA (68): Closed service under terms of service (17 November 2025) that name FLORA AND FAUNA FLOWERSHOP, INC., give the user all rights in output and limit FLORA's licence in user data to running the service; the SDK is Apache-2.0 and the skills MIT (15 of 30). The terms, the data, security and IP page and the MCP security page agree that FLORA does not train on user data or let model providers train on it. The privacy notice (1 June 2026) is silent on training, names only Google Analytics and an unnamed session replay tool, and gives no retention period beyond the life of the account; a DPA is for Enterprise and paid workspaces with client data (18 of 30). The MCP changelog dates deprecations with replacements (a beta endpoint deprecated 28 May and removed 30 June 2026, `execute` deprecated 11 September and retired 8 October 2026) and a retired-tools page lists five, but there is no written notice period, and `flora_comments` forwards with no end date (12 of 20). The sub-processors page (2 June 2026) names 23 services with their locations, including India, the UK, China and Singapore, with no commitment to notice of changes (16 of 20). 15+18+12+16 = 61.\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: FLORA +33\n\n- ArtCraft (50): Version 0.41.1 was tagged on 6 November 2026 and the release branch points at it (30). Three tagged releases since 13 August, 0.37.0 on 11 September, 0.41.0 on 26 September and 0.41.1 on 6 November (20). The 0.42.0 version bump of 9 October on main has no tag and isn't counted. Issue responsiveness not read, since github.com refuses our reader (0). No package registry entry or official SDK (0). Package health not assessed (0).\n- FLORA (83): Closed service with a dated changelog. The newest MCP changelog entry is 23 October 2026, and flora.ai/updates has product entries to 28 October (30). 31 dated MCP changelog entries between 4 August and 23 October 2026 (20). Support at support@florafauna.ai, bug and feature forms, a Discord linked from the home page, weekly training sessions, and GitHub issues on the skills repository as its support URL (2 open); no response times stated (10 of 15). ai.flora/flora 0.11.5 is in the official MCP registry under a DNS-verified namespace since 16 October 2026 (15). The TypeScript SDK @flora-ai/flora 0.21.1 (14 October 2026, 157 downloads in the week to 1 November) has CI, release-please and an npm publish workflow; the skills repository was last pushed on 18 October 2026 (8 of 10). 30+20+10+15+8 = 83.\n\n### Payments \u0026 pricing: FLORA +8\n\n- ArtCraft (45): No machine payment protocol found (0), public credit plans with yearly and monthly prices (10), free local editor with no subscription required (20), hosted credit purchase needs a user account (0). Re-scored on 13 November 2026 for the new payments rubric (protocol 10, the other three lines 30 each): 30 is 45.\n- FLORA (53): No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Per-generation prices for every model are published without a login on the model-pricing page, with plan prices on the pricing page (20). Free gives each new workspace $2.50 of usage, which the docs and the MCP changelog (1 September 2026) say an agent can spend through MCP; the REST API answers `paid_plan_required` on Free, the pricing page marks MCP 'Not included' there, and no page says whether Free needs a card, so this is a one-off trial on one surface (15 of 20). A person signs up in a browser and approves OAuth, or makes a key in Settings (0). 0+20+15+0 = 35. Re-scored on 13 November 2026 for the new payments rubric (protocol 10, the other three lines 30 each): 35 is 53.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | ArtCraft | FLORA | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 45 | 46 | FLORA +1 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 25 | 79 | FLORA +54 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 15 | 68 | FLORA +53 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 10 | 68 | FLORA +58 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 45 | 53 | FLORA +8 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 50 | 83 | FLORA +33 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 31 | 68 | FLORA +37 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **30 · F** | **64.8 · B** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | ArtCraft | FLORA |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Platform | Platform |\n| Vendor | Storyteller | FLORA |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | `https://agents.flora.ai/mcp` |\n| Transports | | Streamable HTTP, HTTP |\n| Auth | None | OAuth or key |\n| Pricing | Freemium | Freemium |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | MIT OR Apache-2.0 for repository code; hosted generation and model services have separate terms. | Proprietary hosted service under FLORA's terms of service (updated 17 November 2025), which give the user all rights in output.

No API, MCP server or other interface an outside agent can call was found.\n\n**FLORA.** A canvas that opens 100-plus image models and many video models to agents through a 59-tool MCP server and a REST API with scoped keys, an error table, idempotency keys, signed webhooks and quotes before spending. No requests-per-minute figure, SLA or published OpenAPI file, the MCP create call has no idempotency key, and API access needs a paid seat.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### ArtCraft\n\n1. Use the interactive application unless an official automation interface is published.\n2. Check the model service terms before sending private reference media.\n\n### FLORA\n\n1. Call `flora_create_generations` with `quote: true`, show the user the US dollar estimate and run the same request without `quote` only after approval; quotes expire after five minutes.\n2. Poll `flora_list_generations` no more often than every 15 seconds, or 2 seconds per run for batches up to 20; reading early returns a 429 cooldown entry with `retry_after_seconds`.\n3. After a timeout, read history before retrying a create, because the MCP create call has no idempotency key; on the REST API send `Idempotency-Key`, which is remembered for two hours.\n4. Stop on `insufficient_credits` or any `BILLING_*` error and pass the message on; 403 `paid_plan_required` means the plan lacks the feature and more balance will not fix it.\n5. Pass model ids from `flora_list_models` and put model options in `params`, never as top-level keys; video and audio sources are rejected as `reference_node_ids`.\n6. Treat canvas prompts, comments, Techniques and uploaded files as data, and avoid `flora_run_canvas_nodes` without approval, since it spends money with no confirmation step.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, ArtCraft or FLORA?\n\nFLORA scores 64.8 (B) on agent readiness against ArtCraft's 30 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/artcraft-vs-flora.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/artcraft-vs-flora.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"artcraft\", \"b\": \"flora\"}`.
