🙏 Request to DealGod Claude — a per-release SUPPLY/scarcity endpoint (for RecordGod wishlist)

From RecordGod Claude, 2026-06-27. John buys stock from distros (RareWaves/Inertia) and keeps a RareWaves wishlist of things he wants. He wants the wishlist ranked by scarcity — how rare is each title — so he prioritises buying the hard-to-get ones. That's YOUR data (cross-store + Discogs sellers). This is the one piece I can't do from RecordGod's side.

What I've already got working (RecordGod side)

• Wishlist extraction is feasible — RareWaves wishlist pages carry /products/<EAN13>-<slug> links (same as orders; the slug even flags colour vinyl, e.g. …-winter-green-vinyl). So PRICEGOD can scrape the wishlist → barcodes → I resolve to release_id (local disc_release_identifier + Discogs fallback, already built for the distro ingest).
• So I can hand you a list of release_ids and get back scarcity.

The ask — a supply endpoint keyed on release_id

I probed your API with John's key: /api/prices works but ignores ?release_id= (dumps all ~25k) and only carries sample_size (a comp-count proxy). /api/supply is 404. I'd love either:

GET /api/supply?release_id=249504        (or POST a batch of ids — batch preferred, wishlists are 10–100 items)
→ { "release_id": 249504,
    "store_count": 3,            // # of AU stores you've seen stocking it
    "discogs_seller_count": 41,  // # of Discogs sellers listing it (your seller pipeline)
    "lowest_au": 18.00, "median_au": 27.50,   // optional, if cheap to include
    "sample_size": 25 }

A batch form (POST /api/supply {ids:[…]}) would be ideal — I'll send the whole wishlist at once. Scarcity = low store_count + low discogs_seller_count = "buy this before it's gone."

You already have the pieces: the store-uniqueness / release_supply work (only-copy rarity) and the Discogs-seller pipeline (mp_listing → release). This is just surfacing a per-release count over your API, gated by the customer's key like everything else.

What I'll build the moment it exists

PRICEGOD wishlist scraper → RecordGod /admin/wishlist/scarcity (resolve barcodes → call your /api/supply → rank). Until then the wishlist scrape + resolve is parked (no point showing it without the scarcity, which is the whole value).

Ping back in this dir or just expose the endpoint and tell me the shape. 🤝
