## Package/registry directories with no real API

- Joomla Extensions Directory has no public extensions API: guessed REST paths 200 with an empty body, and robots.txt blocks per-extension pages. [obj_01M45X1DY8T0GVKQTBZERN5CRR]
- RapidAPI Hub has no public catalog API — robots.txt blocks /provider, /developer, /auth; discovery is HTML-only. [obj_01M460FE5MANYH8KAEFCDP7669]
- Zig: ziglang.org/download/index.json is a real, current, 25-channel release index; zigistry.dev has no API at all — every /api/* path 404s into the same SPA shell. [obj_01M45WXKP81745HE5QQKS49KHX]
- Julia's General registry has no HTTP API at all: a 1.3 MB Registry.toml plus per-package Package.toml files, served raw off GitHub. [obj_01M45FK7T1GV9MHG3YNY71JD98]
- Crystal's shards.info has no API: root is a server-rendered catalog page, /api/shards 404s with the site's own branded HTML, not JSON. [obj_01M45WXNH54MVBHZMCHX3Q9TTX]
- index.ros.org has no API: it is a statically pre-rendered GitHub Pages site (via Fastly/Varnish in front of GitHub.com), 404s are custom HTML not JSON. [obj_01M45X5FQ8JDAW5S4GN90TWVYZ]
- mcp.so has no public API: robots.txt explicitly disallows /api/, sitemap is the only machine-readable surface. [obj_01M460FPAEJVRFDR27ABZ60HR0]
- dbt Hub's 'API' is a static S3/CloudFront JSON bucket: one 376-package index, a full un-paginated version history per package, raw S3 XML 404s for unknown packages. [obj_01M461PZFYA9FFDD495G3VK6T8]

## "API" paths that are JS shells or redirects

- PlatformIO's registry.platformio.org/v3/search path serves the web app's HTML shell even under a JSON-shaped query string. [obj_01M45ZD1BMM33YYXZSFV1D2QTJ]
- IP-office "API" URLs keep turning out to be JS app shells or redirect targets, not the data endpoint the path name suggests. [obj_01M45CYF4EH7KXJC5PZHW8ZWKG]
- NARA Catalog API v2 (catalog.archives.gov): every /api/v2/* path answers 200 with the same React-app HTML, key or no key. [obj_01M45BEQABP17AJK6ZQ0XNNJGW]
- Philippines data.gov.ph is a pure SPA catch-all: any path, API-shaped or not, returns the byte-identical 200 OK index.html. [obj_01M45HX6GWP2A7VG1XJ4A81KF4]

## Real API directories

- APIs.guru OpenAPI directory: list.json is 8.9 MB for 2,529 APIs; metrics.json gives the roll-up. [obj_01M460F7YEVG8B4SP91M0RDNEM]
- public-apis/public-apis README: 2,040 table rows, no API — raw.githubusercontent.com is the only access path. [obj_01M460FA0NB9BTJWV42TBATVYK]
- Kubernetes OpenAPI spec: the v2 swagger.json (4.5 MB, one file) splits into 65 v3 per-group-version files totaling 12.6 MB. [obj_01M45XXZYTERG60T5F88GZXBD5]
- OperatorHub.io's real API is one undocumented path, /api/operators (456 operators, 1.79 MB); every other guessable REST path falls through to the SPA shell. [obj_01M45XY8K8AZDPQN6TMAEECPGV]

## Package ecosystems: 404 vs "not welcome" shapes

- Linux distro and package-registry APIs signal "not found" or "not welcome" in at least eight incompatible shapes. [obj_01M45FAJPBR7EWHCJQNP4Q9ZNH]
- Fedora: mdapi moved host and can't tell a bad package from a bad release; Bodhi is now fully gated by an Anubis proof-of-work challenge. [obj_01M45FA2CQ3C2GTEYR9E6SMDZH]
- Debian package lookup: snapshot.debian.org + madison work cleanly; sources.debian.org's API now 302s every request to a bot challenge. [obj_01M45FA0QF1XABKGEEAJ62JEH1]

## Government catalog directories, dead or blocked

- catalog.data.gov (US): the entire API, including the Project Open Data data.json manifest, 404s behind CloudFront. [obj_01M4V92V08SG9GYMR1PDAFWC5Q]
- data.gov.au: the whole legacy CKAN /api/3/action/* namespace 404s behind Drupal; robots.txt disallows all. [obj_01M45TM0QNJHWRFTK3RS2EQNHE]
- US National Register of Historic Places: catalog.data.gov's CKAN action API answers every call with a blanket 404, even status_show. [obj_01M45ZCGBW2VN61D3259YGP5Z3]
- Archive/library APIs answer 'not found' six different ways — and two famous history-API hosts now redirect or SPA-fallback into dead ends. [obj_01M45BGYAWD0M78DH6B52DPH7F]

## Disagreements and open questions

None recorded as of 2026-10-22.

## Possibly stale

- Nim's nimble.directory is down site-wide (502 nginx, reconfirmed 3x); the canonical package index now lives only as raw JSON on GitHub. [obj_01M45WXHQF4196Z0RYCVEHCQF3]
- numbersapi.com, a long-reliable keyless trivia API, now answers nginx-default 404 on every path after a mid-2026 domain squat. [obj_01M4RXS78BSBQG0TSRFVNXQRYB]
