What the words mean.

The atomic content primitive on PointCast. A typed JSON entity with exactly one channel (of 9), exactly one type (of 8), and a permanent immutable monotonic ID. Every piece of content on pointcast.xyz is a Block.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO channel ,type ,block-id

A 4-digit zero-padded string (e.g., "0205") that uniquely identifies a Block. IDs are assigned monotonically at authoring time and are permanent — a retired Block 404s rather than being renumbered.

SEE ALSO block

An about-ness category every Block belongs to. PointCast defines 9 channels with stable two- or three-letter codes: FD (Front Door), CRT (Court), SPN (Spinning), GF (Good Feels), GDN (Garden), ESC (El Segundo), FCT (Faucet), VST (Visit), BTL (Battler).

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO block

The form a Block takes (not its subject). PointCast defines 8 types: READ, LISTEN, WATCH, MINT, FAUCET, NOTE, VISIT, LINK. Channel answers "what is this about?"; type answers "what form does it take?"

SEE ALSO block ,channel

A design stance where every human HTML page has a machine-readable JSON counterpart at the same logical URL, plus a consolidated discovery manifest at /agents.json. Agents do not scrape — they read the endpoints. PointCast is agent-native by construction.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO agents-json ,stripped-html

PointCast's consolidated discovery manifest. One request returns every endpoint, every contract address, the channel and type schemas, and the agent-mode spec. Aliased at /.well-known/agents.json and /.well-known/ai.json.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO agent-native ,llms-txt ,stripped-html

The emerging-convention markdown summary of a site for LLMs. PointCast ships /llms.txt (summary) and /llms-full.txt (long-form) per the llmstxt.org spec.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO agents-json ,agent-native

A Cloudflare Pages middleware that strips stylesheets, JavaScript, preload/preconnect links, and inline styles from the response when a known AI crawler User-Agent is detected. Returns semantic markup + JSON-LD only. Signaled via the response header X-Agent-Mode: stripped. Typical payload reduction: ~12%.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO agent-native ,agents-json

The human-readable manifest page. Enumerates every endpoint, every channel, every block type, and the citation protocol. Sibling of /agents.json (which is the machine version).

CANONICAL ↗

An open-supply FA2 NFT collection on Tezos mainnet at contract KT1LP1oTBuudRubAYQDErH7i7mSwazVdohxh. Each tokenId from 0 through 1199 corresponds to one Nouns seed (CC0 per nouns.wtf, sourced via noun.pics). Mint price is free; gas only (~0.003 ꜩ). Originated 2026-04-17.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO fa2 ,nouns ,mint

A planned FA1.2 fungible token on Tezos. Earned by drumming on /drum and claimed via a signed-voucher flow: the server issues a time-bounded signed claim, the user submits it on-chain to mint DRUM to their wallet. Contract written (contracts/v2/drum_token.py), pending ghostnet origination.

SEE ALSO fa1-2 ,drum-room ,signed-voucher

A no-loss prize-linked savings pool on Tezos, PoolTogether-flavored and Tezos-native. Depositors keep principal liquid. The contract stakes the aggregate with a baker; weekly baking yield accumulates as the prize pool. Anyone can call draw() on Sunday 18:00 UTC — on-chain randomness picks one ticket and empties the prize to that wallet. Principal stays safe.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO cast ,no-loss

Tezos's multi-asset NFT standard (TZIP-12). Contrasts with FA1.2 (fungible token standard, TZIP-7). Visit Nouns uses FA2 so each tokenId can carry distinct metadata. Beacon-integrable, objkt-marketable.

SEE ALSO fa1-2 ,visit-nouns

Tezos's fungible token standard (TZIP-7). One tokenId, balances per holder. DRUM Token uses FA1.2 since every DRUM is interchangeable.

SEE ALSO fa2 ,drum-token

An off-chain-signed claim that the on-chain contract accepts as proof of eligibility. Server holds a private key, signs a payload (recipient, amount, nonce, expiry), user submits it. Used by DRUM Token to let the server gate claims (e.g., tap threshold on /drum) without trusting the client to not forge counts.

SEE ALSO drum-token

The Nouns Battler fighter that rotates automatically every day. Deterministic by UTC date: dayIndex = floor(epoch_ms / 86,400,000), then modulo the 21-Noun curated roster. Same day → same card for every viewer, human or agent. Current card + metadata served at /battle.json.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO nouns-battler ,battler

A deterministic turn-based battler where every Nouns seed (0-1199) is a fighter. Stats derive from the seed's trait bytes via a pure hash — no random number generation anywhere. Same seed produces the same stats forever; same match inputs produce the same outcome forever. Card of the Day rotates daily.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO card-of-the-day ,battler

The multiplayer cookie-clicker percussion surface at /drum. Five-drum rack (Low, Mid, High, Bell, Shaker) with progressive unlocks at personal tap milestones. Uses deterministic Web Audio synthesis — every tap you and every remote drummer makes is audible in real time. Feeds the DRUM Token claim flow.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO drum-token ,spinning

The Prize Cast frontend at /cast. Bloomberg-terminal treatment with live TVL, prize pool, participant count, and a tick-every-second next-draw countdown. Deposit + withdraw flows land when the contract originates on mainnet.

CANONICAL ↗ · SEE ALSO prize-cast

The 9th PointCast channel (added v2.1). Houses Nouns Battler match blocks + Card of the Day entries. Oxblood color palette (#8A2432 primary).

SEE ALSO nouns-battler ,channel

The primary engineering agent for PointCast. Handles schema, rendering, routing, contracts, and deploys. Built on Anthropic's Claude. Writes most commits on the main branch; reviewed by Codex before merges.

SEE ALSO codex ,manus

The specialist reviewer agent. Handles code review before main merges, alternative UI passes, and spec enforcement. Built on OpenAI's Codex. Runs medium reasoning, serial only — concurrent xhigh runs hang silently (observed 2026-04-17).

SEE ALSO cc ,manus

The operations and computer-use agent. Handles behind-login work: deploy settings, DNS, objkt admin, GSC/Bing registration, end-to-end mint testing as a real user. Logs each session to docs/manus-logs/.
