Server tool list (6)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| list_rows | The roster: every vault the Kerne Honesty Index measures, with its key, protocol, symbol, chain and contract address. Cheap. Call this first to find the key for get_row. |
| get_board | The full Kerne Honesty Index: what each of the measured synthetic and yield-bearing dollars ADVERTISES against what its holders actually REALIZED, computed from ERC-4626 share-price growth on chain over a 30 day window, plus the board summary and the provenance of the snapshot. Kerne Protocol publishes this board, is on it, and lists its own row first by rule. A gap of null means the two figures are not comparable, never that the protocol paid zero. |
| get_row | One row with everything behind it: the verbatim advertised quote and the first-party page it was read from, the capture date, both block heights, both share prices, the arithmetic, the exact eth_call payloads needed to reproduce it, and any right of reply the protocol has published. |
| get_methodology | The measurement, the comparability rules that decide when a gap may be stated at all, the capture expiry, what this board deliberately does not cover, and the standing commitment if you reproduce a row and get a different answer. |
| get_corrections | Every time this board changed something it had stated about a named company, or changed a method rule, with the old value, the new one, the date and the rule that stops a repeat. Append only: entries are never edited or removed. |
| get_right_of_reply | The free, permanent, unedited reply slot every measured protocol has on its own row, its terms, the only three things that will not be published, and every reply received so far. |
