Current release status
Public document hashing and exact integer aggregation are live with signed results. Native consensus, mining, issuance, COMPUTE payments and rewards are inactive. Independent operation is not yet demonstrated.
Available integration
The supported browser/server boundary is same-origin HTTPS /api/public-work/health and /api/public-work/jobs. The bounded API does not accept arbitrary Node/WASM code, customer runtime commands or private signing keys.
Unimplemented offerings
No advertised npm/PyPI/Go/Rust SDK, generalized contract platform, paid enterprise package or production reward API is qualified. Use the documented HTTP API and published source instead of installing similarly named unverified packages.
The real public API contract
The supported integration is HTTPS and explicit public data. There is no invented SDK package or arbitrary-code runtime behind these examples.
| Boundary | Implementation / evidence | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GET /api/public-work/health | No body | Gateway and pinned-policy observation, not worker uptime |
| POST /api/public-work/jobs | kind, input, public_data_consent:true | Accepts registered bounded public work |
| GET /api/public-work/jobs/:id | Actual returned job_id | Pending, failure or verified signed result |
| Unavailable / invalid request | Actual HTTP error | Never a fake receipt or healthy fallback |
Practical procedure
- 1POST a non-confidential input and inspect the actual response.
- 2Retain job_id; poll with a bounded retry policy if pending.
- 3Treat verified status as a claim to check, not a proof by itself.
- 4Download complete evidence and verify it against the known policy.
curl --fail --show-error https://www.compute-net.org/api/public-work/jobs \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{"kind":"integer-aggregate","input":{"values":["12","-3"]},"public_data_consent":true}'
# Then GET /api/public-work/jobs/YOUR_ACTUAL_JOB_ID
# Preserve pending/errors; verify the final signed result.Limits and failure cases
- Never submit keys, credentials, personal data or confidential inputs.
- Document input is bounded to 64 KiB; vectors to 1,000 canonical integer strings, each ≤32 characters.
- This API does not authorize or perform COMPUTE settlement.
