FOR AGENTS

Plug GameAI HOT into your agent

MCP, RSS and API: three ways to the same data — picks, the hot list, and the daily, weekly and monthly reports. Choose whichever fits your tools. Everything is anonymous and read-only: no sign-up, no API key.

Service upVersion 4.1.0Anonymous, read-only · No key
REST API · 4.1.0

Anonymous GET, ready to use

No token. Call it straight from a browser (cross-origin is allowed), with curl or with any language's default HTTP client. Paths live under /api/v1, and OpenAPI is the reference for fields and error codes. Add lang=en for English text.

Your first request
curl --compressed 'https://gameaihot.top/api/v1/items?mode=selected&window=24h&limit=20&lang=en'

Lighter and faster

  1. 01
    Turn on compression

    Add --compressed to curl, or enable gzip or br in other clients. Compressed JSON is 1/4 to 1/8 of its original size.

  2. 02
    Send the ETag

    Save the ETag from each response and send it back as If-None-Match; when nothing has changed you get a 304 with no body.

  3. 03
    Fetch at the right pace

    News and hot stories at most once a minute; the daily brief once after it's out, weeklies and monthlies once after they're published; when paging back, stop at the first item you already have.

How often things change: new items arrive throughout the day, picks change a few to dozens of times a day, and the daily brief comes out at 08:00 every day, the weekly on Mondays at 10:00 and the monthly on the 1st at 10:30 (all UTC+8).

Common recipes

bash
# First time: save the ETag from the response headers
curl --compressed -i 'https://gameaihot.top/api/v1/items?mode=selected&window=24h&limit=20&lang=en'
# Then at most once a minute, with the ETag; a 304 means nothing changed
curl --compressed -i -H 'If-None-Match: <last ETag>' 'https://gameaihot.top/api/v1/items?mode=selected&window=24h&limit=20&lang=en'

To page back, pass page.nextCursor back as cursor and stop at the first item you already have; don't re-read all 7 days every time.

When something goes wrong

400
Bad parameters: fix them using OpenAPI and the returned code; don't fall back to a broader query automatically. A cursor that is invalid or has slid out of the time window returns invalid_cursor; start again from the first page.
409
snapshot_required: changes can't be resumed safely; take a fresh full snapshot.
429
Too many requests: wait as Retry-After says; don't retry in parallel.
5xx
Back off exponentially and use your last good result meanwhile; the public service comes with no SLA.
