Why mirror at all

Upstream links rot, rate-limit, and retract silently. A mirror gives Epistack a citable, versioned copy — every analysis runs against the exact bytes it was built on.

Open by default

We mirror what upstream indexes report as open access, and record provenance for each work. That is a test of access, not of licence — the two come apart, and which of those works we may serve is being settled. Coverage numbers are measured from the store on every load — no black boxes.
