What the API provides
- Repository-aware file ranking for one ready repository.
- Direct HTTP + JSON access.
- A clean way to embed ranking into internal developer tooling.
Authentication
API access requires credentials. For a repository you own, get a verification token from the ready submission detail and pass it as a bearer token.
Primary endpoint
