README
Data and feeds
TheFlyBrain publishes its experiment registry in machine-readable form. Everything here is a static file: fetch it with a plain GET, with no account or key. The files are rebuilt each time the site is updated.
Resources
| Resource | Format | Contents |
|---|---|---|
/experiments.json | JSON | Every experiment (68): number, title, topic, date added, summary, setup, measurement, limitations, sources and page links. |
/search.json | JSON | The site search index: experiments, topics, pages, neuron pages, glossary terms and questions. |
/feed.xml | Atom | Experiments, newest first. |
/llms.txt | Text (Markdown) | What the site is, key facts, and links to every experiment and page, in the llmstxt.org format. |
/llms-full.txt | Text (Markdown) | Every experiment in full, with timelines, plus questions and answers. |
/sitemap.xml | XML | Every page, with last-modified dates and images. |
Any page + index.md | Markdown | The page as Markdown, for example /faq/index.md. Requests with Accept: text/markdown receive the same file. |
/openapi.json | OpenAPI 3.1 | A machine-readable description of these resources. |
/.well-known/api-catalog | Linkset (RFC 9727) | A catalog of the resources above, for automated discovery. |
The homepage also returns Link headers (RFC 8288) pointing to the API catalog, the OpenAPI description, this page and llms.txt. Every page carries schema.org structured data.
