DISCOVERED — reader facts from the ERC-8004 Identity registry (CREATE2 0x8004a169fb4a3325136eb29fa0ceb6d2e539a432, live on mainnets): registrations read via keyless public RPC (eth_call tokenURI), declared service endpoints probed three-state for liveness. Nothing minted, no transactions ever, Validation mainnet PENDING. The live board is GET https://councilof.ai/api/gspc.

The headline: we measured the REAL agents, not the registry noise. The 8004scan indexer reports ~785,000 registrations. Filtered to agents that have actually received on-chain feedback (min_feedbacks>=1), that drops to 138,967. We drew a defensible sample of that real population, resolved each agent's on-chain tokenURI(uint256) keylessly, decoded the registration-v1 descriptor, and probed its declared service endpoint three-state.

Live-filter result (erc8004_live_filter_census.json)

• 45 real agents probed (ranked from the feedback-bearing + x402 pool, on chains with a keyless public RPC so every selected agent was actually probed).
• 25 LIVE / 14 PLACEHOLDER / 6 DEAD → live-fraction 0.556. Roughly half of the real agents have a genuinely reachable service; the other half are placeholders or dead endpoints.
• LIVE = declared endpoint answers HTTP 2xx/3xx (or 401/402/403 auth-gated) · PLACEHOLDER = registration resolves + declares an endpoint but it answers 4xx/5xx · DEAD = no endpoint declared, or DNS/connection fails.

Files

• erc8004_agents.jsonl — flat viewer table, one row per probed identity (45): agent_id, token_id, name, chain_id, endpoint_state (LIVE/PLACEHOLDER/DEAD), registry_address, http_status, as_of. Registry totals stay in erc8004_live_filter_census.json.
• erc8004_live_filter_census.json — the full 45-agent probe: per-row chain, token_id, tokenURI sha256, declared endpoint, three-state, HTTP code; plus registry totals.
• erc8004_live_atoms.json — the 25 genuinely-LIVE agents (the callable set).
• ledger-card-erc8004-callable-unsigned.json — the erc8004.callable card-v0 atom (aggregate census summary; sig_ed25519=null — NO_LAPTOP_SIGN, queued for GHA OIDC signing under did:web:csoai.org#board-attestation-1).
• census_snapshot.json, tokenuris.json, probes.json — the earlier n=3 snapshot, retained.

What this is not

• Not a GSPC axis. No GSPC measure fields on any card.
• Not 785k minted identities — we registered nothing and never will from a ledger script.
• Not a Validation-registry result — Validation mainnet is PENDING; testnet skipped.
• is_verified filter returns the full set unchanged (indexer quirk) — treated as untrusted.
• High-feedback agents on chains without a keyless RPC (e.g. 5042002, 196) were logged UNRESOLVED, never counted as DEAD.
