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.
Submit public data
Use the HTTPS CVC form or POST /api/public-work/jobs. Set public_data_consent=true only for non-confidential public data. The service publishes results/input commitments. Never submit secrets, personal data, credentials or wallets.
Request shapes
Document body: {"kind":"document-sha256","input":{"data_b64":"YWJj"},"public_data_consent":true}. Integer body: {"kind":"integer-aggregate","input":{"values":["12","-3"]},"public_data_consent":true}. These are request examples, not claimed execution results.
Status and signed result
Read job_id from the accepted response, then GET /api/public-work/jobs/<job_id>. A successful HTTP response is not enough: wait for status=verified, inspect errors and verify the receipt. Refresh result in the form if the job is pending. No COMPUTE payment is requested or implied.
Verified HTTPS health endpoint
curl --fail --show-error https://www.compute-net.org/api/public-work/health
This command queries the real gateway. Its response is not a workload result or proof of global worker health.
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.
