IEEE 1686 API

How do I query IEEE 1686 data over an API?

Point a GET request at api.theartofservice.com/api/agent/frameworks/IEEE 1686, or add the MCP server to Claude Desktop or Cursor with the config below. You get 7 controls, 7 domains and every cross-framework mapping this standard carries. The free tier is 10 calls a day and needs no signup or API key.

Add IEEE 1686 to Claude Desktop or Cursor in one config block

Copy this config into your MCP client to start querying IEEE 1686 data with AI:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "compliance": {
      "url": "https://api.theartofservice.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

No API key required for up to 10 calls/day. Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client.

Questions developers ask about the IEEE 1686 API

Is there an API for IEEE 1686?▾
Yes. The Art of Service provides a REST API and MCP server with full IEEE 1686 data: 7 controls across 7 domains, plus cross-framework mappings to 686 other compliance frameworks. Free tier includes 10 calls/day with no signup.
How do I access IEEE 1686 controls programmatically?▾
Use the Compliance Intelligence API at api.theartofservice.com. Call GET /api/agent/frameworks/IEEE%201686/controls to retrieve all 7 controls with codes, titles, and descriptions. Supports filtering by domain.
Can I map IEEE 1686 controls to other frameworks?▾
Yes. The API provides cross-framework mapping with 311K+ verified control-to-control mappings. Call GET /api/agent/cross-map?source=IEEE%201686&target=TARGET to map IEEE 1686 controls to any of 686 frameworks.
Does the IEEE 1686 API work with Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor?▾
Yes. The API is available as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. Add it to Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client with a single JSON config snippet. AI agents can then query IEEE 1686 data directly.
How much does the IEEE 1686 API cost?▾
Anonymous access is free (10 calls/day). Free accounts get 100 calls/month. Professional plans start at $149/month with 10,000 calls included. No credit card required for free tier.

What IEEE 1686 actually requires

The API returns the data. If you want the standard explained first, with its controls, domains and the frameworks it overlaps with, that is on the IEEE 1686 framework page.
