Status Services (Group 0)
Live network-introspection commands used for connectivity checks, version discovery, statistics, and auditing.
Overview
Group 0 is the live status surface. These commands do not move value; they expose reachability, versioning, operational metrics, and audit-oriented reporting.
Live commands
| Code | Name | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| 00 | echo | Connectivity and request/response sanity check. |
| 01 | version | Returns protocol/software version metadata. |
| 02 | show_stats | Returns operational statistics. |
| 03 | audit | Returns audit-oriented reporting data. |
00 — echo
Use echo when you need to confirm that a specific RAIDA is reachable and able to complete a basic round trip. It is the lowest-risk probe in the live surface.
Typical client use
Run echo before expensive multi-RAIDA work, or when you need a quick liveness probe for diagnostics and dashboards.
01 — version
version returns the responding RAIDA's version string or version bytes. Use it to gate feature handling, confirm cluster rollout state, or record compatibility information during client diagnostics.
02 — show_stats
show_stats is the live statistics endpoint in Group 0. It is the correct reference for operator-style metrics requests; older pages that described code 02 differently are not authoritative.
When to call it
Use this command for aggregated service and performance insight, not for coin validation.
03 — audit
audit is the live audit/reporting endpoint in Group 0. It is distinct from show_stats and should be documented and handled separately.
Frontend guidance
Treat audit results as reporting data. Do not assume the response body shape is identical to show_stats.
