OpenAPI Specification

openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: PepBank Sync API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: 'PepBank is an open, academic-grade database of peptide research. Every finding links to the sentence in the paper that supports it, and every finding has an evidence class: **human**, **animal**, **laboratory** or **predicted**.


    The same operations are available through the hosted MCP server (`/mcp`).


    ## Authentication


    Anonymous requests work with the Visitor quotas. For your own plan and quotas, send an API key: `Authorization: Bearer pepbank_...` or `X-API-Key: pepbank_...`. Create keys on your account page. Never put a key in browser code.


    ## Pagination and completeness


    Searches return a `search_response`. `total_count` is exact. Send `next_cursor` as `cursor` to read the next page, with the same filters. Every page reads the same `data_seq`, so the set does not change while you page. `complete` is true only on the last page, and the last page carries `result_set_hash` (SHA-256 of the ordered result IDs, joined by newline).


    ## Reproducibility


    `query_id` names a normalized query at one `data_seq`. `GET /v1/queries/{query_id}` runs it again and compares the hash. `as_of_seq` reads records as they were at an earlier `data_seq`. `GET /v1/changes` is the change feed.


    ## Data layers


    1. Study results (`/v1/findings`): extracted from papers and checked by code checks and an independent model review (`auto_checked`) or by a reviewer (`human_verified`).

    2. Stored papers (`/v1/publications`): papers without study results carry the notice `contains_unchecked_papers`.

    3. Live search (`/v1/live/publications`): Europe PMC, live. Labeled `live_result_not_checked`. Never mixed with findings.


    ## Errors and limits


    Errors are RFC 9457 problem details (`application/problem+json`) with a stable `code`. Each response that counts against a quota carries `RateLimit-Policy` and `RateLimit` headers (IETF draft-ietf-httpapi-ratelimit-headers-11). A 429 response carries `Retry-After`.


    ## License


    PepBank data is CC BY 4.0. Abstract and quotation text keeps the license of its source. Cite the `data_seq` that you used.


    **Information, not medical advice.** The API never recommends a dose. Doses appear only as studied doses in findings.'
