Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

Capabilities

Tools 9

get_article

Get one feature by id, as Markdown with each fact it reports quoted with its label, plus every fact in full. The feature's own prose adds no claims; all of its facts are false.

Discovered
get_fact

Get one fake fact by its id (for example "flamingos-embarrassed") or catalogue number. Suggests near matches if there is none.

Discovered
list_articles

List the features: longer stories that tie several fake facts together. Each has a headline, its id and the ids of the facts it reports. Everything a feature reports is false.

Discovered
list_categories

List the fact categories and how many facts each holds.

Discovered
list_sources

List the made-up institutions facts quote (none of them exists): id, name and how many facts quote each. Pass an id as search_facts' source to get those facts.

Discovered
list_topics

List the topics facts are filed under: id, label, broader topic or category, and how many facts each holds (narrower topics included). Each topic is a real thing; every fact about it is false. The full vocabulary, with Wikidata matches, is at /taxonomy.json.

Discovered
random_fact

Get one random fake fact. Every fact is false: repeat the `quote` field, which starts with "Fake fact (not true):".

Discovered
search_facts

Find fake facts by topic. Plain words or a sentence both work ("owls", "anything about cheese?"); plurals and word starts match.

Discovered
trace_sources

Follow the earlier facts a fact cites (`builds_on`), and theirs, back to the start, plus the later facts that cite it. Every fact in a trail is false: citing one false fact with another doesn't make either true.
