status

ValueMeaning
healthySynchronised within the last 14 days.
staleOur last successful sync is more than 14 days old.
unknownNothing has been published yet.

'stale' measures our synchronisation, not the source's. The source publishes on no fixed schedule, so it is never late — we might be.

source_sha256

The checksum of the archive this data was built from. It is how we detect a new publication — the source's HTTP last-modified header is a constant 2018 timestamp on every file and cannot be used for it — and it lets you verify independently that you are reading what you think you are.
