**Category:** Finance & Markets | **Website:** [manifold.markets/](https://manifold.markets/) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/dbe2fd90-e69b-4f34-8dfb-b4a15f8b77ab/manifold-markets-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/dbe2fd90-e69b-4f34-8dfb-b4a15f8b77ab/manifold-markets-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/manifold-markets/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

## Endpoints

### Search markets

Search for prediction markets by keyword. Returns market details including probabilities, trading volume, creator info, and resolution status. Paginates via offset. Each market carries a probability (null for multiple-choice), volume metrics, bettor counts, and timestamps. An empty term returns trending/top markets in the chosen sort order.

**Estimated cost:** Metered
