DeGov API

DeGov Agent API publishes machine-readable DAO governance data across proposals, votes, voters, forum topics, events, and curated signals. Public metadata and DAO discovery routes are available without a partner token; paid routes use x402 USDC on Base or a DeGov partner token. This public source profile is editorial evidence only, while current PubFi routeability comes from the live signed Registry

Best fit and tradeoffs

Best for

  • DAO proposal and vote analysis
  • Governance-agent workflows that join on-chain and forum evidence
  • They need a normalized API surface across DAO proposals, votes, voters, forums, events, and governance signals.
  • They want agent-oriented governance records without treating every community source as the same contract.
  • They need an explicit per-request x402 or partner-token access path for paid governance routes.

Watchouts

  • General market-price aggregation
  • Low-level blockchain RPC access
  • DeGov is specialized for DAO governance workflows and does not replace market-data, general RPC, or broad explorer APIs.
  • The provider data-status endpoint can report backfilling or partial coverage, so current upstream health and coverage must be read separately from route availability.
  • Paid routes require either x402 payment on Base or a DeGov partner token; public metadata routes do not prove that every route is free.

Why teams choose it

DeGov Agent API is a machine-readable DAO governance source for proposals, votes, voters, forum topics, events, and curated signals. Its provider-owned OpenAPI describes public metadata and DAO discovery routes plus paid routes that settle through x402 USDC on Base or accept a DeGov partner token.

For Discovery readers, DeGov is a governance-specific API rather than a general market-data, RPC, or chain explorer product. Public editorial evidence can describe its source shape and access model, but the active signed PubFi Registry remains the only authority for current PubFi routes, methods, billing, and readiness. Provider health is a third, independent observation from PubFi Status.

PubFi gateway

Available in the active Registry

The currently installed signed Registry generation contains an executable route for this provider. The same generation drives request matching, runtime OpenAPI, and this public view.

Runtime OpenAPI

21 additional route variants are available from the exact capability API and Runtime OpenAPI.

  • Accepted PubFi auth headers: Authorization: Bearer <PubFi API key>.
  • Upstream credentials remain server-side; callers send only a PubFi API key.
  • Use the runtime OpenAPI for the exact typed query, body, and response contract.

Implementation notes

Auth

Medium

Inspect the selected route's provider OpenAPI security and live PubFi billing contract before choosing x402 or partner-token access.

Freshness

Medium

Read provider data-status independently from Registry readiness because upstream coverage can be degraded while PubFi still has ready route variants.

Schema

Medium

Preserve the route-specific proposal, vote, voter, forum, event, and signal response contracts instead of flattening them into one universal governance schema.

Use cases

  • Monitor governance proposals and voting activity
  • Resolve DAO, proposal, voter, forum, event, and signal records for agents

Comparison snapshot

Compare DeGov with Subscan when the workflow is governance-specific: DeGov focuses on DAO proposals, votes, voters, forums, events, and signals across supported communities, while Subscan focuses on indexed Substrate and Polkadot explorer-style account, extrinsic, staking, asset, and governance reads.

PubFi friction relief

Auth

Source friction
The provider OpenAPI distinguishes public routes from paid routes that use x402 USDC on Base or a partner token.
PubFi relief
Discovery states the provider access model while the live Registry supplies the exact PubFi route and billing contract at request time.

Other

Source friction
The provider data-status endpoint publishes a coverage state and data-as-of timestamp independently from its API schema.
PubFi relief
Discovery keeps editorial freshness, Registry availability, and provider health as separate evidence layers.

FAQ

What is DeGov API used for?

DeGov API is a source for DAO proposals, votes, voters, forum topics, events, and curated governance signals.

Does every DeGov route require a partner token?

No. Provider metadata and DAO discovery routes are public. Paid routes use x402 USDC on Base or a DeGov partner token according to the provider OpenAPI.

Is DeGov available through PubFi?

Inspect the live PubFi Registry and runtime OpenAPI. This editorial profile does not establish current execution by itself.
