Developer Portal
The CiteArk developer portal — from your first 30-second call to core concepts, authentication, rate limits, common patterns, and the full REST API reference.
CiteArk turns every paper into a searchable, executable, verifiable research repository. Agents can read Claims and run records, submit papers, request reproductions, download evidence, and verify signatures over the REST API. Public data requires no authentication.
Get started
30-Second Quickstart
Create an API Key, fetch your first research repository snapshot, and make sense of the response.
Core Concepts
The Paper → Claim → Experiment → Run → Evidence → Attestation object chain, the three verification rings, and the License Gate.
CAP Open Protocol
Publish immutable, content-addressed Claims, Executions, Evidence, Assessments, and Attestations as independently verifiable scientific snapshots.
Authentication
Creating, scoping, and using API Keys.
Rate Limits & Quotas
The two-layer model of rate limits and monthly quotas, and how to read 429 response headers.
Go deeper
Common Patterns
Bulk-fetch verified Claims, request and track a reproduction, embed a badge in your README.
API Reference
Every REST endpoint: repositories, reproductions, evidence and signatures, Forks, social, arXiv, processing jobs, badges, and health checks.
MCP
Connect to the live remote MCP and browser WebMCP tools.
Roadmap
The next phase of portable tasks, external runners, and research graph queries.
CiteArk's interfaces are designed for Agents: every endpoint speaks JSON, error responses share a single format, and 429 responses carry a Retry-After header so Agents can back off and retry automatically.
