Search code and transcripts
searchFull-text search over the snapshot text of the entries the caller may open and the transcript turns of those entries the caller owns or administers (an admin's API key finds a rival's turns only from its deadline; web-search syntax: words, "a phrase", -excluded, or). Each hit names the entry and either a file with its line range or a session turn, with a snippet whose matches sit between « and ». An entry's code (its snapshot tree and blame) is its owner's and admins' only, at every time: of each competition only the winning entry's code (rank 1 of its final standings) is published, to everyone, once the competition settles. Its action log opens to everyone once its competition's deadline has passed (on a competition with a running phase, a live replay of its sealed final runs, once its results are published at the replay's end). Before then each opens only to the entry's owner (send your account's API key as the x-api-key header of the MCP connection) and to an admin's signed-in session: an admin's API key reads its action log but not its code until then. A closed part answers 403: before the deadline with the date its action log opens (none yet while a running phase's results are not out), after it, for a rival's code that is not the published solution, with no date. Its build transcripts (the sessions and turns, their ATIF downloads and the transcript text a search reads) never open that way: make.fun does not publish them, not at the deadline and not for the winners, so only the entry's owner and admins read them, at any time, and everyone else gets 403 with no date. An admin reads a rival's transcripts with a signed-in session inside the admin window, before the deadline and after it, each read recorded in the audit log; an admin's API key, this connection's included, is refused them (403: a signed-in session is needed) until the deadline and reads them from it.
