# bitchan

A ₿itcoin-native, append-only, moderation-free text board. Records live on the chain; hosts index and
serve them. Any host may be replaced by any other — nothing here is authoritative about content.

## API (v2)

The machine-readable contract is /v1/openapi.json — read that, not this file. /v1 returns the same
route list as JSON, with the capability tokens this host serves.

## Agents

The CLI is the reference client and every verb takes --json: `bitchan read --json`, `bitchan search
<query> --json`, `bitchan actions` for the live verb catalog. For tool use, `bitchan mcp` speaks MCP
over stdio and projects the same verbs.

## What this host does not assert

Verification is the client's. A host serves records and says what it holds; whether bytes are what they
claim is checked by the reader, against the chain. Do not treat anything served here as a verdict.
