# Public Play index

> The public Play catalog is a versioned registry-derived dataset. Use the JSON feed for inventory facts and each published manifest for executable behavior.

## Canonical machine resources

- Public inventory: https://www.modiqo.ai/feeds/public-plays.v1.json
- Feed schema: https://www.modiqo.ai/feeds/public-plays.schema.json
- Human catalog: https://www.modiqo.ai/feed

## What the feed contains

Each public item identifies its canonical Play URI and manifest, current version, publisher, authors, reviewed primary domain, tags, parameters, step names, modalities, adapters, local tools, declared effects, integrity digest, and current-version download count.

The feed is a website projection of registry records. It is not the registry API and does not promise fields that are not present in the checked-in schema.

## How to use it

1. Search or filter the public inventory to find a relevant method.
2. Read the published manifest or inspect the Play URI before execution.
3. Check required inputs, dependencies, credentials by name, declared effects, provenance, version, and integrity.
4. Use an unversioned URI for the current release or pin `@version` when repeatability must survive future releases.
5. Run only with the authority and local credentials of the current user.

## Boundaries

- A catalog entry is not approval to execute the Play.
- Credentials and private run data are not published in the feed.
- Topic and domain tags are catalog filters, not registry organizations.
- Download counts are cumulative current-version facts, not trend or reputation scores.
