Deterministic facts-only snapshot for exploration targets: USGS MRDS deposit counts, geochemical anomaly stats, satellite scene availability, World Bank jurisdiction governance score, and GDELT social-license signal — raw numbers, no AI synthesis. Lite-tier preview of /api/prospect/exploration-brief.

price-ascending: candidates are ordered by the listed price of the operation, with no managed-first preference applied. Unlike /v1/apis, this surface does not rank Apiosk-settled listings above federated ones — a comparison that reorders on commercial grounds is not a comparison. Pass sort=managed_first for the catalog's ordering.

Compared: listed price, settlement rail and input compatibility. Not measured yet: latency, reliability, result quality, and provider terms such as rate limits, jurisdiction and licensing.
