# Earth Runtime Decisions — candidate

> Experimental structured decisions using Qwen2.5 with parallel constrained decoding. Anyone can buy a 24-hour API key for a one-time $1 at https://json.earthruntime.com/pilot?buy=1 (Stripe checkout; the key is shown after payment and emailed). Endpoint: POST https://json.earthruntime.com/v1/decisions with a Bearer key. The sandbox pages replay recorded outputs.

## Documentation
- [API v1 documentation](https://earthruntime.com/decisions/docs): API and local mock request examples, authentication, validation defaults, errors, expiry and rotation.
- [Recorded sandbox](https://earthruntime.com/decisions/sandbox): Seven recorded examples, two decoding paths on the same Instruct model; no inference requests.
- [Recording limitations](https://earthruntime.com/decisions/docs#recordings): Captured timings, unvalidated probabilities, missing capture metadata and answer keys.

## Boundaries
The draft API schema supports string enum lists. It is not the legacy sandbox schema, an OpenAI chat endpoint, or a confirmed OpenCode /models integration. The confirmed offer is one-time $1 for 24 hours starting at confirmed payment. One purchase per browser; top-ups are not yet available. No token caps, carbon savings, or accuracy guarantees are established. Canonical URLs are assigned at build time. Pages remain marked noindex until an approved release; the integration does not change the main site’s robots.txt.

## Approved refund and shutdown policy
Charged but unfulfilled purchases will be refunded. Other refund requests require approval via [contact@earthruntime.com](mailto:contact@earthruntime.com). For experiment shutdown, stop sales and top-ups, close unpaid checkouts, reconcile pending payments, and honor paid access until expiry. The remaining paid window is normally at most 48 hours once pending payments are resolved; unresolved payments may affect the final end date. If forced to stop early, refund unused time. Publish the shutdown date and notify customers. These are approved launch policies, not a claim that checkout, refunds, or customer notifications are connected. No shutdown date is announced by this candidate.
