What is PlatPhorm News?

PlatPhorm News is the public root and demilitarized read-only entry point for the PlatPhorm network. It aggregates public source-attributed stories and exposes the root graph, discovery files, feeds, and trusted-domain directory.

What is the PlatPhorm network?

The PlatPhorm network is the set of trusted and pending *.platphormnews.com services discovered through the root graph, static registry, and sitemap surfaces.

What is MCP (Model Context Protocol)?

MCP is used where it matches a site purpose. The root exposes a local MCP endpoint for public story and network discovery, with protected actions gated by PLATPHORM_API_KEY.

How do I access the PlatPhorm News API?

The API is available at /api/docs and /openapi.yaml with endpoints for stories, feeds, network graph, route compliance, trusted domains, and MCP discovery.

What requires authentication?

Public read-only discovery is open. Mutating, sync, test-triggering, reporting, publishing, and administrative actions require PLATPHORM_API_KEY.

I mean, technically you didn't recreate anything. You had the LLM pattern recognize something that already existed and it copied it. I don't mean to sound harsh, but create something new.

So nostalgic. I had fun declining founders because of their various frauds/schemes.
