from header to api

What happens to a patch

1. 01

   header

   Each patch starts as the C++ header the dumper writes for that build.

2. 02

   parsed

   Every declaration becomes a typed entry. Anything the parser can't read blocks the release.

3. 03

   decoded

   Hidden fields ship with their decode chain, in order.

4. 04

   served

   Poll /latest with your key and an ETag. You get a 304 until the next patch is published.
