# Posture score and the counts behind it

`GET /v1/otel/summary`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.1claw.co`
- URL: `https://api.1claw.co/v1/otel/summary`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

`posture_score` is the mean agent trust score, less a penalty per open critical threat scaled by the fraction of the organization that threat can reach. Scaling by fraction rather than count is what makes the number comparable between a seven-agent org and a fifty-agent one.

It returns 100 when there are no agents, and also while the trust engine is still in shadow mode and no scores exist yet — absence of data is not evidence of compromise. It never goes below 0.

`top_threats` uses the same ranking as `/v1/otel/threats`, so clicking through from the summary lands on the same first row.
