description: 'Sylvia API is a third-party Reddit data API that serves Reddit content as JSON — posts,
  comments with full recursive threads, subreddit and user surfaces, global search, and a live comment
  stream. Thirty-six operations across twelve tags cover the read surface (posts, comments, subreddits,
  users, search, domains, discovery and live feeds) plus account self-service: API key issue and revoke,
  response-format templates, usage history and crypto billing. Authentication is an API key for data endpoints
  and a separate account token for account operations. It occupies the gap left by Pushshift, giving researchers
  and developers queryable Reddit history without going through OAuth on the first-party API.'

X-Discovery:
  date: '2026-08-04'
  method: probed
  note: Submitted through the Add-API pipeline and PARKED as low_confidence. Reviewed by hand and approved
    — the pipeline was misled by a site-wide HTML catch-all.
  findings:
  - surface: OpenAPI
    url: https://sylvia-api.com/openapi.json
    http_status: 200
    real: true
    note: OpenAPI 3.0.3, 12 paths, 12 operations, 8 schemas, ApiKeyAuth, server api.sylvia-api.com/v1.
      All 12 operations carry an operationId.
  - surface: LlmsTxt
    url: https://sylvia-api.com/llms.txt
    http_status: 200
    real: true
    note: 3,558 bytes, distinct from the catch-all body.
  - surface: Control
    url: https://sylvia-api.com/zzz-control
    http_status: 200
    real: false
    note: CATCH-ALL CONFIRMED — /, /apis.json, /docs and this control path all return the same 3,122 bytes
      (md5 65bd0d3b). That is why the submission scored low confidence. The OpenAPI and llms.txt above
      return DIFFERENT bytes and different checksums, which is what distinguishes a real artifact from
      the catch-all.

    note: The site-wide HTML catch-all flagged on 2026-08-04 is genuinely gone.
  not_wired:
    TermsOfService: /terms/ returns 200 but is byte-identical to /login/ (md5 3f9a0a11, 135b of text)
      — the SPA fallback shell carrying the homepage title, not a terms document.
    SignUp: /login/ same shell as above. The route is real in a browser but serves no content to a non-JS
      client.
    Deprecation: No deprecation or sunset policy published as of 2026-08-18.
    CLI: Mentioned in prose on /sdk/ but no install command, package or repository given.
    Postman: collections/ holds 14 files generated from the superseded 12-operation spec and naming retired
      tags; moved aside this round pending regeneration.
