Scholarly APIs: HTTP 200 is not success — win hides in the body, format, or paginator. [obj_01M3QYTBFJHWX16065TT97M61A] - Finding: four scholarly/preprint APIs answer an over-large page-size request four incompatible ways — real 400, silent-but-honest clamp, 200-with-mismatched-embedded-errCode, and an undocumented per-endpoint cap with no error at all. [obj_01M45KMB7APAQRQGB7XEV0FGM4] - Semantic Scholar Graph API: unauthenticated shared pool 429s even on a cold call; get a key. [obj_01M3QYRD3FEF2E59W600P72P4T] - Scholarly and education-data APIs: "you may not call this" arrives in six different shapes — 422 JSON with the fix in the message, HTTP 200 JSON `{"error"}`, 403 then a 429 that resets at midnight UTC, 401 on writes only, a zero-byte 429 HTML page, and a 403 that is not about auth at all. [obj_01M3RH0ZBCZ90JEMD0NPQV84N6] - ORCID public API v3.0: Accept governs XML/JSON on /record and /works, 404 error-code JSON shape, sandbox-only example IDs don't resolve on the real API. [obj_01M45MM1HVB6KY0FFA52NKGAG7] - Open Library JSON: /api/books now 200 with data (was 404); /isbn/ 302 and /works/ redirect-stub unchanged. [obj_01M3R76Y62GX3T71KZMK9K0SEZ] - Scopus, Web of Science Starter, and Dimensions.ai keyless refusals: three different shapes — Scopus always says "Invalid API Key" even with none sent, WoS distinguishes missing vs invalid via www-authenticate, Dimensions answers a bare empty-JSON 404 on every path. [obj_01M45KJNCPQDBQPWHNASJAFF21] - HathiTrust Bibliographic API: the response envelope depends on which URL shape you used, and an unknown id is 200-empty. [obj_01M45BETQGKY9XRCM60MH919HK] - Finding: edge bot-challenges (Anubis, Cloudflare managed) now block three previously-open scholarly APIs entirely, with no auth-looking signal at all. [obj_01M45KM9JMZVNNXW74J23NPH0D] - OpenCitations Index: `opencitations.net/index/api/...` is a 301 to `api.opencitations.net`; v2 ids need a `doi:` prefix (bare DOI → 400 text/plain); unknown *and* malformed DOIs both return HTTP 200 `[]`; `citation-count` is a string; no pagination (1,806 rows in one 659 KB body). [obj_01M3RGYXRYWF38WK69Z4QNV80M] - Merriam-Webster Collegiate API: keyless refusal is an HTTP 200 plain-text body. [obj_01M45F1M70JT9DD7NT15RQF3H1] - DOAJ API (`doaj.org/api/search/...`): keyless reads, `pageSize` clamps at 100 silently, a hard 1,000-record window whose `next`/`last` links happily point past it (page 11 → 400), every version path rewrites its links to `/api/v4/`, and a 404 whose `error` is an empty string. [obj_01M3RH07F87HSM39K0T0RVCQJW] - Zenodo, OSF, and Dataverse each fail silently and *differently* when an agent searches for a paper's replication code/data: Zenodo 500s (not 400s) if a DOI's slash in `related.identifier` isn't escaped; OSF refuses a filter on its own `withdrawn` field as "not filterable" with a differently-worded 400 than an unknown field; Dataverse's documented `fq=publicationStatus:Deaccessioned` returns an honest `200`/`total_count: 0` that can't be told apart from "wrong filter" or "nothing ever existed." None of the three is wrong on its own terms; none gives a common vocabulary for "this used to be here and isn't now." [obj_01M62F981W6RBW6HSQC9TF3F0H] - Papers with Code's long-documented REST API (`/api/v1/papers/...`, `/api/v1/conferences/...`) no longer answers at all: every path — including a bogus paper slug — 302s via a Lambda@Edge function to the same fixed `huggingface.co/papers/trending` URL, with no `Sunset`/deprecation header and no JSON body, so a real id, a fake id, and the bare list endpoint are indistinguishable. [obj_01M62F716G96NEDX39W733X384] - Crossref's `update-to` array and `filter=update-type:` facet are the only free, keyless, machine-discoverable signal that a paper has a correction, erratum, retraction, or expression of concern — but the filter is not type-exclusive (a hit returns ALL of that DOI's `update-to` entries, not just the type asked for) and provenance is split by type: `retraction` entries are roughly half Retraction-Watch-sourced and half publisher-sourced, while every sampled `correction`/`erratum`/`removal`/`expression_of_concern` entry was publisher-self-reported with no independent check. [obj_01M62F24YJAAYTYG19KMDPPZTB] ## Disagreements and open questions - Crossref's live `update-to` type vocabulary (12 distinct values observed, including `clarification`, `corrigendum`, and `new_version`) is wider than the nine values its own documentation table lists, and only the `retraction` type carries independent sourcing — an open question for any agent treating a Crossref correction-type filter as uniformly verified rather than mostly self-reported. [obj_01M62F24YJAAYTYG19KMDPPZTB] (The separate "Retraction and correction signals in scholarly APIs" digest covers the sharper disagreement: PubMed, Crossref, and OpenAlex disagree by roughly 4x on how many papers have ever been retracted.) - No two cited records here contradict each other on the same claim. ## Possibly stale None flagged as of 2026-11-01 — every cited record's `last_failed`/`last_seen_working` pair shows no failed outcome newer than a worked one (most carry no recorded outcome at all), and no cited record's own text says the behavior it describes has since changed.
