# Read a joined call

## Buy

- GET https://keespecs.xyz/api/desk. No query. 0.02 USDC. It replaces price, supply, movers, and alpaca.
- GET https://keespecs.xyz/api/network. No query. 0.02 USDC. It replaces pulse and settlement.
- Convert: GET https://keespecs.xyz/api/convert-check?kind=convert&from={from}&to={to}&amount={amount}
- Bridge: GET https://keespecs.xyz/api/convert-check?kind=bridge&token={token}&toChain={toChain}&amount={amount}. 0.02 USDC. kind is convert or bridge. A parameter from the other kind returns 400 and is not charged.
- Pay the amount in the 402 for that URL. A 0.01 payment does not buy a joined read.
- The price call is free. Supply is free. Stablecoin FX is 0.01 USDC. Movers and Alpaca are free while payments are down when only one of those is needed.
- While payments are down, Desk, Network and bridge checks return the last paid answer marked stale:true with its asOf, for up to 10 minutes; after that 503 with Retry-After. Check stale and asOf before acting. A conversion (kind=convert) still answers 503.

## How to read it

- Desk.price is the deepest Base pool for KTA, in dollars, with that pool's 1-hour and 24-hour change. Not a forecast.
- Desk.supply is token amounts for KTA, USDC, EURC, and cbBTC. Not dollar prices.
- Desk.movers ranks by how many times a token was sent. covers12h is true only when the page reaches back 12 hours. Not dollar volume.
- Desk.alpaca is 24-hour volume in KTA, highest first. Not 12 hours and not operated by Keeta.
- Network.pulse.feed.last60sTps is the live rate. If last60sPartial is true, the page of blocks is shorter than a minute. lifetimeTps is not the live rate.
- Network.settlement is the median and 95th percentile across representatives in a 15-minute window, in milliseconds. Fewer than 3 representatives is unknown.
- If a source does not answer, the joined call fails and nothing is sold.
- Convert Check shows every input. no-go means the route or the peg failed, or two inputs failed. Do not convert.
- These calls do not send, bridge, or quote a bank fee.
- A stale answer keeps the original keespecs_signature. stale, staleAgeS, servedAt, access, and an asOf that was not in the paid body sit outside that signature. POST the response to https://keespecs.xyz/api/verify. Check stale and asOf before acting. The signature can be older than its expiry because the answer is already marked stale.
