description: 'Founded in Brussels in 1983, the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS) is a leading independent think tank
  and forum for debate on EU affairs, with strong in-house research capacity and an extensive network of partner institutes.
  CEPS conducts evidence-based policy research on European and global issues (Data Governance Act, Data Act, AI Act, climate,
  energy, migration, trade, defence, financial markets) and disseminates it through publications, events, task forces and
  podcasts rather than through any programmatic interface. CEPS publishes no API, SDK or developer program, and as of 2026-09-05
  has no working machine-readable surface: the RSS feed this record once pointed at returns HTTP 500 ("No feed available")
  and is robots-disallowed, and no OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL SDL, MCP server, A2A agent card or /.well-known/ document exists
  on any ceps.eu host. Following CEPS now means the newsletter or the HTML listings on ceps.eu.'

  description: CEPS publishes roughly 150 working papers, policy insights, reports and commentaries a year across some 20
    policy topics, listed on the public publications page and filterable by topic. This entry was originally recorded because
    CEPS syndicated that stream as RSS/Atom, but the feed at https://www.ceps.eu/feed/ was probed on 2026-09-05 and returns
    HTTP 500 with the WordPress body "No feed available, please visit the homepage!"; robots.txt additionally disallows /feed/
    and /*/feed/. The dead RSS and Feed pointers have been removed rather than left standing as a claim CEPS no longer serves.
    What remains is an HTML listing with no machine-readable contract; see lifecycle/ceps-lifecycle.yml for the retirement
    record and the evidence behind it.

  description: CEPS maintains a public calendar of policy events, conferences, task force meetings, roundtables and webinars
    at /ceps-events/, filterable by event type and by upcoming/past state through query parameters. The listing is HTML only
    — there is no iCal, JSON or feed representation, and the /feed/ endpoint this entry previously pointed at now returns
    HTTP 500. The old /events/ path returns the site 404 template with no redirect and has been corrected here.

  detail: 'CEPS is a Brussels policy research institute whose product is publications and events, not software: it runs no
    developer program, and the one machine-readable surface it used to serve — the site-wide WordPress RSS feed at /feed/
    — now answers HTTP 500 "No feed available" and is Disallow''d in robots.txt, leaving the WordPress REST root the site
    itself declares at /wp-json/ (also robots-disallowed, and honored unprobed) as the only programmatic thing on the domain.'
