# Solana Block Production Stats (Mint Intel)

> Solana Block Production Stats (Mint Intel) is a paid API for AI agents from mintintel.35-171-220-195.sslip.io, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-31).

Returns Solana cluster block production stats for the current epoch including leader slots, skip rates, worst-performing validators, and optionally a single validator's production details.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability solana-block-production-stats-mint-intel-9f7ad7e1
```

Example prompt: What's the current Solana cluster skip rate this epoch, and which validators are performing the worst — especially anyone with 40 or more leader slots?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need current-epoch Solana block production and validator skip rate data without running your own RPC node. It's ideal for monitoring cluster health, ranking validator reliability, or performing due diligence on a specific validator by identity or vote account. Prefer this over generic Solana RPC calls when you need pre-computed skip rates and worst-performer rankings in a single cached call.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent validator identity/vote account returns empty or zero stats
- RPC data may be up to 60 seconds stale due to caching
- Validators with fewer than 40 leader slots are excluded from the worst-skip-rate list
- Network congestion or RPC node downtime may cause timeout or error response
- Malformed public key in ?id= parameter may return an error

## How this service works

Solana block production for the current epoch via getBlockProduction (cached <=60 s): cluster leader slots, blocks produced, skipped slots and skip rate %, the 10 worst skip rates among validators with >= 40 leader slots, and with ?id= one validator's leader slots, blocks and skip rate (identity or vote account).

## Output

Returns the current epoch number, cluster-wide skip rate percentage, total leader slots and blocks produced cluster-wide, and an array of the 10 validators with the worst skip rates (among those with >= 40 leader slots). If a validator id query parameter is supplied, also returns that specific validator's leader slots, blocks produced, and skip rate.
