Unknown npubs are not considered banned (they simply aren't members). Free, unauthenticated. Used by operators during the cold path (credit purchases) to enforce community bans.

The Operator calls this on behalf of a patron after the patron has signed the cryptographic challenge from request_citizenship. Verifies: 1. The challenge exists and hasn't expired 2. The Schnorr signature is valid 3. The event's pubkey matches the claimed npub 4. The event content contains the issued nonce 5. The npub is not already registered On success, commits directly to dpyc-community/members/citizens/{npub}.json to register the new Citizen immediately.

An Operator cannot exist without a sponsoring Authority, so deregistration removes the member file entirely, returning the Operator to initial state.

Describes how value flows through the network: ad valorem certification fees, the cascade up the Certification Chain to the First Curator, and where the live numbers actually live. The Oracle quotes **no** rates, counts, or revenue figures — those belong to the Authorities' pricing models and the live registry, not to a docent. Free, unauthenticated.

An Operator seeds its relay set from here at cold start (its only fixed dependency is this Oracle endpoint), then reads its own bootstrap config from Nostr using just its nsec — no direct GitHub access. That file is a curated *guess*: it says which relays are worth using, not which are up this minute. Relays that an operator reported and the Oracle then proved unreachable are moved to the back of the list; everything else keeps its declared order, and nothing is ever dropped. This call never probes anything — it is on every operator's cold-start path, so it stays a lookup. Ranking improves only when someone hits a dead relay and says so via ``report_relay_failure``. Report failures only; successes need no announcement. Free.

Taxation is ad valorem and **per-Authority** — there is no single network-wide number, and the Oracle deliberately quotes none. The actual fee is the Authority's own accounting, set in its pricing model and reported at transaction time. This tool is a docent: it explains the model and points to the live source. For the exact figure, query the relevant Authority's ``check_price`` for ``certify_credits``.

Returns the eight-step procedure covering identity, region selection, GitHub workspace, dpyc-community registry entry, Neon + BTCPay + Horizon deployment, BTCPay credential delivery via Secure Courier, the self-registration challenge-response with the parent Authority, and pre-funding the cert-fee balance. Fetched live from docs/how-to-add-authority.md in the dpyc-community repo.

Reads the member roster from the dpyc-community registry, then (when ``probe=True``) performs a lightweight MCP handshake against each member's public service endpoint to fetch that service's *own* self-description and tool inventory. Nothing about the services is hardcoded here — descriptions are authored by each service, and prices come from each Operator/Authority pricing model (call the service's ``check_price``). Resilient by design: per-service timeout, partial results, brief caching, and a registry-only fallback when an endpoint is asleep or unreachable. A sleeping service never breaks the listing. Free, unauthenticated.
lookup_member

Look up a member by their Nostr npub. Can look up any role's npub — citizen, operator, or authority. Returns the full member record if found, or a not-found message.

Advocates are community utility services that provide shared infrastructure (e.g., OAuth2 callback collectors) but aren't monetized Operators or certification Authorities. This is an Oracle-mediated registration — no Nostr DM challenge-response needed. The Oracle operator (Prime Authority) trusts the commit via GitHub token.

Called by an Authority service at the end of the onboarding protocol (after the candidate proves npub ownership and the Prime Authority approves). Commits a new ``members/authorities/{npub}.json`` file to dpyc-community on GitHub. The full Authority onboarding protocol is a 3-step Nostr DM challenge-response flow: 1. ``register_authority_npub(npub)`` — Authority sends DM challenge 2. ``confirm_authority_claim(npub)`` — verifies candidate DM, escalates to Prime 3. ``check_authority_approval(npub)`` — Prime approves, this tool is called

It asks the Oracle to measure that relay *now*, and the Oracle's own probe decides. A false or mistaken report therefore costs one probe and changes nothing — no caller can demote a healthy relay by asserting that it is down. Report only failures. Successes are far too frequent to be worth carrying, and a relay that works needs no announcement.

Called by the Operator on behalf of a patron — invokes the Oracle directly. No Authority npub is required or consulted. The patron's npub is registered as a Citizen in the DPYC community. The npub provided here becomes the user's **patron identity** — the keypair they will use for credit purchases and service access across all Tollbooth-monetized services. Not to be confused with **operator** registration, which goes through the Authority via a Nostr DM delegation request. Issues a cryptographic challenge that the applicant must sign with their Nostr private key (nsec) to prove they own the claimed npub. The nsec never leaves the applicant's device. Returns a challenge_id, nonce, and signing instructions. The applicant signs a Nostr event containing the nonce and submits it via confirm_citizenship within 10 minutes.

Use this after bootstrap to learn — and verify — which Authority signed your config, without reading GitHub.
