Enhancing the Stark Industries Arc Reactor API to improve energy output monitoring and introduce fail-safe shutdown controls. This update modifies existing endpoints and adds new safety features.
• PUT /reactor/output – Now supports dynamic power scaling (power_level
0-100%).
• GET /reactor/status – Response now includes coolant_levels
and emergency_shutdown_status
.
• POST /reactor/shutdown – New endpoint to trigger a controlled shutdown.
{ "auth_code": "****", "reason": "maintenance" }
{ "status": "shutdown_initiated" }
• Improved stability with controlled shutdowns preventing overloads.
• Breaking change: Clients must handle new status fields in API responses.
• Performance boost: More efficient power adjustments reduce energy waste.
• Update PUT /reactor/output to support dynamic scaling.
• Modify GET /reactor/status to include new telemetry fields.
• Implement POST /reactor/shutdown with secure authorization.
• Update API documentation & notify all integrated clients.
• Conduct load testing to verify system stability.
• Power scaling works within defined limits (0-100%).
• New status fields are correctly populated in GET /reactor/status
.
• Emergency shutdown can be triggered only by authorized users.
• No API downtime during deployment.
