AEMC Energy Rules API
The undocumented JSON API behind AEMC's Energy Rules application. It serves the consolidated, versioned text of the National Electricity Rules, National Gas Rules and National Energy Retail Rules — every published version with its commencement and start dates and its PDF/DOCX artefacts, the full chapter/part/division/rule/clause tree, per-node rule text, full-text search within a version, and the complete defined-terms glossary with cross-linked definitions. Verified live and entirely anonymous on 2026-07-27 — no API key, no OAuth, no cookie, no CSRF token; responses carry x-ratelimit-limit 1000 and are served through AWS API Gateway in front of a Laravel application using the Laravel data/links/meta envelope and page/perPage pagination. AEMC publishes no documentation, terms of use, SLA, versioning or deprecation policy for it, and no OpenAPI — the specification in this repository is derived by API Evangelist from AEMC's own production client bundle plus live probes of every route, with the HTTP status of each probe recorded in x-evidence. Every path is keyed by the rule version id rather than the human-facing version number.
