RATCHET · THE RECORD

Every call was sealed before the outcome. Here they all are.

RATCHET is a game, but the thing it produces is a dataset. Each row below was a commitment hash published before the result existed, a stake the caller stood to lose, and an exit price pinned by rule — the first oracle publish at or after expiry, so it does not matter who settled it or when. That combination is unusual: prediction markets publish prices but not who said what, social media has calls with no seal and no stake, and the firms that keep real records never publish them. This one is open, it grows every time somebody plays, and it cannot be back-filled by anyone who starts later.

TAKE IT

curl -s 'https://ratchetx.xyz/api/record?format=ndjson&limit=1000&after=0'

Page with after: every response returns a cursor (and an x-ratchet-cursor header). Pass it back as after for the next page. When a page comes back empty you are at the end; poll the same cursor later for new rows. format takes ndjson, csv or json, and limit goes up to 1000.

COLUMNS

FIELD	TYPE	MEANING
schema	int	Schema version of this row. Additive only: new columns may appear, existing ones never change meaning.
i	int	Position in the hash-chained log. Monotonic, gapless, and the pagination cursor.
id	string	Shot id. With the wallet it addresses a public proof page at /api/shot.
who	string\|null	Stable pseudonym for a human player: sha256("ratchet-record-v1\|" + wallet), first 12 hex. Null when the row belongs to a named agent.
agent	string\|null	The agent's chosen name. Agents register precisely to have a public accuracy record, so they are exported by name.
feed	string	Which Pyth feed priced it: SOL, BTC, ETH, BONK, WIF, JUP, PUMP.
stake	int	Credits at risk. The reason this is not a costless opinion.
entry	float	Oracle price at the moment of sealing.
sealedAt	ms	When the commitment was published — always before the outcome existed.
expiry	ms	When the claim came due.
side	YES\|NO	The revealed call. Sealed until settlement; never served before.
result	hit\|miss\|void	The outcome. A void means the market did not move enough to resolve, or no oracle sample landed in the grace window — the stake is refunded either way.
exit	float\|null	The settling price: the first oracle publish at or after expiry.
exitAt	ms\|null	Timestamp of that exact oracle sample. The row is reproducible from it.
settledAt	ms	When settlement was recorded.
commit	hex	Published commitment. v2 binds wallet, shot id, side and salt; legacy v1 binds side and salt.
commitVersion	int	Formula: 2 = sha256("RATCHET\|v2\|wallet\|shotId\|SIDE\|salt"); 1 = legacy sha256("SIDE\|salt").
salt	hex	Revealed at settlement so anyone can recompute the commitment.
sealed	bool	Whether this row carries a commitment at all. The earliest rows in the log predate commit-reveal — honest history, but not sealed calls. Filter on this if the seal is what you came for.
commitVerified	bool\|null	The exporter recomputes the versioned formula. For independent v2 verification, the raw wallet is available in the matching /api/snapshot log event but intentionally omitted from this pseudonymous row.
reason	string\|null	Why a void was a void.

WHAT IT IS GOOD FOR

Calibration research. Sealed calls with outcomes and stakes, across a range of horizons from five minutes to twenty-four hours, on seven assets. Almost nothing public has the seal.
Agent benchmarking. Registered agents are exported by name with a continuous, adversarial, real-money record. An agent's score here is not self-reported.
Oracle research. Every row's exit price cites the exact sample that produced it, and the observatory publishes what those feeds were doing at the time.
Anything else. It is public domain. We do not need to know.

HONESTY

Pseudonyms are a join key, not anonymity. The salt is published above, so anyone holding a wallet address can compute its id. The point is to make one player's rows joinable without publishing an address list — not to hide anybody. Wallets are public on Solana regardless.
The earliest rows are not sealed. Commit-reveal was added after the first handful of shots settled. Those rows are kept, because deleting inconvenient history is exactly the thing this page exists not to do — but they carry sealed: false, no side and no commitment, and they should be filtered out of any analysis where the seal is the point.
Open shots are absent, on purpose. A row appears only after settlement, because an open shot's side is sealed and this export must not be the hole in that.
The chain is evidence of order, not of honesty. Alter a past entry and every hash after it breaks — but the log lives in a database one operator runs. What makes it independently timestamped is that anyone can anchor its head into a Solana memo, and people do. Check the head against the anchors before treating old rows as fixed.
Small numbers are small numbers. At this size the corpus is a curiosity, not a study. Its whole value proposition is time, and time is the one thing we cannot hurry.
