Ry Walker Developer Resources
rywalker.com publishes a read-only interface for agents, search tools, and research workflows. Use it to discover public essays and research metadata or retrieve the Markdown source for one published item.
Public content API
Start with the OpenAPI 3.1 schema. List content with GET /api/v1/content, retrieve an essay with GET /api/v1/content/essays/{slug}, or retrieve research with GET /api/v1/content/research/{slug}. List requests support typed type, tag, and limit parameters.
Successful and error responses are JSON. Errors include a stable code, a readable message, and a recovery hint. Every documented operation has a unique operation ID, description, typed parameters, and response schema suitable for generated clients and LLM function calling.
The v1 path is the compatibility boundary. Breaking changes require a new major version; additive response fields may be introduced within v1. Deprecations will be documented in the OpenAPI description before removal.
Markdown for agents
Public pages support HTTP content negotiation on their canonical URLs. Send Accept: text/markdown to receive compact Markdown with a text/markdown; charset=utf-8 content type and Vary: Accept. A request that rejects both HTML and Markdown receives 406 Not Acceptable.
Discovery and scope
See the agent instructions, LLM index, sitemap, and RSS feed. Prefer the API for structured discovery and Markdown negotiation for readable page content. Cite canonical pages rather than API URLs.
No API key or account is required. The interface does not create content, send messages, expose private drafts, or provide actions on Ry Walker’s behalf. It currently has no authentication, webhook, mutation, GraphQL, or MCP surface.
