- directory.get
The directory envelope (v0.2, authority: manifest). Real entries only — a data source enters on one of three admission routes (E21); an empty list is the honest state, never padded.
- facts.badge
shields.io endpoint JSON for one subject, derived from the fact table — «no facts» in grey when nothing is recorded, never rounded up.
- facts.latest
Latest effective facts per subject+metric from the versioned fact table — the bitemporal as_of cutoff is exposed; an absent store is the honest empty view.
