Discovery

Discovery is PubFi’s public source-selection layer for crypto data APIs.

​

What Discovery Does

Discovery helps humans and agents:

• find crypto data providers;
• compare provider fit by chain, category, capability, auth, pricing posture, and source evidence;
• understand claim-safe readiness;
• discover demand-led topic pages;
• request or route future integrations without treating every source as callable today.

​

Route Families

Canonical public routes include:

• /discovery
• /discovery/api/{source_slug}
• /discovery/category/{slug}
• /discovery/chain/{slug}
• /discovery/compare/{slug-a}-vs-{slug-b}
• /discovery/topic/{slug}

​

Discovery Is Not Execution

Discovery inclusion does not mean the source is callable through PubFi. Runtime callability depends on gateway readiness, configured credentials, source freshness, PubFi API-key auth, credit checks, and capability or route support.

​

Agent-Readable Discovery

Discovery content is also exposed through:

• /llms.txt
• /llms-full.txt
• /discovery/api/{source_slug}.md
• /discovery/topic/{slug}.md
• /discovery/agent-capabilities.json

These exports are public-safe retrieval surfaces. They must not expose private accounts, credentials, billing records, dashboard data, raw readbacks, or production seo_geo rows.

​

Snapshot Counts

At snapshot commit 1658e1b298c5, checked-in public-safe Discovery data includes:

• 167 data-source records;
• 167 source-freshness records;
• 178 capability cards;
• 5 routing-result examples;
• 7 topic-intent records.

These are content/source counts, not traffic, ranking, or citation metrics.
