Oracle Feed (External Ingest)
Brings the outside world in. Every 60 Zeqonds it calls your registered oracle external protocol, binds the response, runs KO42, and emits oracle_datum — a signed, Zeqond-stamped record of exactly what the upstream returned and when. The honest substrate for price feeds, weather, lab instruments, any third-party data. (Wire an external API named oracle on your machine first.)

Operators it composes
Each transition fires a registry operator through the master equation (compute → prove → verify). This template composes:
KO42
Browse the operators at /operators/; the building blocks a transition calls are the framework's protocols. KO42 is the always-on substrate operator; physics operators carry proof_required: true, so each fire runs the full compute → prove → verify path and lands a verifiable proof digest on your entangled state.
Deploy it
Inspect the full definition, then deploy it onto your state machine. Every fire is Zeqond-stamped onto your entangled state.
# 1. Inspect — the full definition (states, transitions, operators) as served
curl -sS https://zeqsdk.com/api/contracts/templates/oracle-feed
# 2. Deploy onto your machine (auth: session; body carries your machine slug)
curl -sS -X POST https://zeqsdk.com/api/contracts/templates/oracle-feed/deploy \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-b "<your session cookie>" \
-d '{"slug":"<your-machine>"}'
# → 201 { "ok": true, "contract": { "id": "…", "currentState": "live", … },
# "template_id": "oracle-feed" }
The deploy path runs the same two-stage validation as the canonical create route (ContractDefinitionSchema.parse + validateContractDefinition against the live registry), writes the creation row onto your entangled state, and schedules the first fire. From there, drive transitions with POST /api/chain/<your-machine>/contracts/<id>/transition or let any triggers fire them autonomously.
