Bsv Standards

This skill should be used when the user asks about any BRC (BRC-1 through 185+), "what is Beersy", "beersy.dev", "what is BRC-61", "what is BRC-42", "what is BEEF", "what is BUMP", "Compound Merkle Path", "what is MAP protocol", "what is AIP", "what is B protocol", "what are BSV standards", "what is SIGMA", "what is BAP", "what is paymail", "what is 1Sat Ordinals", "what is BSV-20", "what is BSV-21", "lookup BRC", "BitCom protocols", "what is bitcoin-auth", "what is bitcoin-backup", "what is bitcoin-image", "what is Bitcoin Schema", "what is DPP", "what is PacketPay", "what is Authrite", "what is PIKE", "what is P2PKH", "what is Push Drop", "overlay network", "SPV", "outpoint format", "what is ORDFS", "HTTP 402", "x402", or needs to understand a BSV standard, protocol, or specification.

BSV Standards Lookup

Never answer a BRC question from memory or from this skill's text. Fetch live. 185+ BRCs exist and the set grows.

Beersy explains. GitHub is normative — cite GitHub.

BitCom protocols (AIP, MAP, B, BAP, SIGMA) are not BRCs. Do not assign or cite BRC numbers for them.

Fetch

Explain / identify — https://www.beersy.dev/brc/{n} (mirror: https://brc.bsvb.net/brc/{n}). Use the "Reference for an AI" block. The page also links the GitHub original.
Implement / quote / verify — GitHub raw: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bsv-blockchain/BRCs/master/{category}/{nnnn}.md Pad the number to four digits (62 → 0062). Categories: wallet, transactions, scripts, key-derivation, payments, overlays, peer-to-peer, tokens, outpoints, opinions, state-machines, apps.
Unknown category — take the GitHub link from the Beersy page. If Beersy is down, fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bsv-blockchain/BRCs/master/README.md and match the number.

Orientation (not a catalog):

Browse: https://www.beersy.dev/browse

Beersy summaries are AI-written. If they disagree with GitHub, GitHub wins.

Load-bearing BRCs

Fetch these by number when the task matches. Not a complete index.

Task	Fetch
Wallet-to-app interface	100, then 116, 46, 1
Key derivation (Type42 / BKDS)	42, 43
Transaction proof bundle	62 (BEEF), 95 (Atomic BEEF), 74 (BUMP)
SPV	67 (current); 9 is historical
P2P payment / paymail	29
Message signatures	77
Mutual auth (Authrite)	31
HTTP payments	105, 121 (simple 402), 120 (x402) — no dedicated skill; fetch then implement from the spec
Overlay index/sync	22, 88 — no dedicated skill; fetch
1Sat / BSV-21 in a BRC-100 wallet	147, 150, 159–165 — no dedicated skill here; hand off to the 1sat plugin after fetching
