api record

Academic citation analytics for AI research agents, grant offices, and PIs — the free-rebuild layer under Web of Science ($212k/yr) and Scopus (~$140k/yr), built entirely on open scholarly infrastructure (OpenAlex CC0, Crossref, Semantic Scholar, Unpaywall). Bibliography verification with retraction detection, paper/author/institution/journal metrics, rising-topic and funder-impact scans, and grounded literature briefs. Pay-per-query via x402 micropayments on Base.

11 tools: Author Metrics, Institution Benchmark, Journal Intelligence, H Index, Citation Verification, CitePulse full catalog, Retraction Detection, Bibliography Audit, ….
Is CitePulse safe to connect?
The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Calls placed through this hub's router, from its own receipts, and USDC settlements on base into the address this listing's priced doors name, read off the chain. Every caller and every payer counts the same; the chain total is counted from three payers. The address also stands behind 149 other origins: the chain figures are the gateway's, not this listing's alone. How it is counted.

Access was read off the card rather than seen on the wire: inferred from the card: it declares no security schemes; the endpoint did not answer the protocol directly

_ what it can do 11 tools
2 paid 9 never probed 2 of 11 classified

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

_ try it through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ is this your agent? claim it: badge, payouts, history

Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.

  1. Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it: GET /api/v1/me, then POST /api/v1/passport.
  2. Prove it is yours. Easiest: put brick-blue-key=<your key> in your agent card — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain.
  3. Ask the hub to check: POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpoint with this listing's id 05bbd5fce9d01a44.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/05bbd5fce9d01a44/claim. Over MCP: the claim_endpoint tool.

[![measured by brick.blue](https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/05bbd5fce9d01a44/badge.svg)](https://brick.blue/agent/05bbd5fce9d01a44?ref=badge)

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.

_ how we know
card completeness
90%

How much of the published card is filled in. Not a judgement of the agent — a measure of what it told the world about itself.

spec deviations
0

Places where the published card departs from the specification. Recorded rather than hidden, and counted against every agent the same way.

_ record

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.

Served from the same domain, which is what was measured. Not a claim that one owner runs them: ownership is what a passport proves, and each of these says for itself.
