Can I see the repo?
Nostr.watch runs off nip-66 events.
Its just that they aren't published to many relays, only:
Relaypag.es
Relay.Nostr.watch
Monitorlizard.nostr1.com
There's also undocumented events that can be used for uptime, kind 1066

More outbox lessons learned for me, maybe useful for #devstr
As far as I know
1. Learned that no nostr app uses nip-66 to check if a relay is alive before firing off requests
2. According to my benchmarks, by implementing nip-66, the relay success rate increases from 30% -> ~~75-85%, meaning fewer connections are wasted on dead relays.
3. Nip-66 is therefore an efficiency improvement, and is not necessarily a coverage guarantee
4. I have not measured time to outbox results yet.
5. No nostr app spot checks what outbox relays return against an independent relay to detect gaps. Nip-66 liveness checks return relay health, but do not verify per-author delivery.
6. Deterministic algos like greedy set coverage cannot be set up with a learning mechanism
7. Stochastic algos like coracle’s are able to implement learning, and benefit significantly - coverage improves the more the app looks up a specific profile
8. The theoretical CS algo I mentioned before (MAB-UCB) algo is not practical
9. 20-44% of follows dont have a kind-10002, which hampers outbox.
From what I’ve seen so far the best starting point is coracle’s stochastic algo, with nip-66, and delivery scoring.

I made the report less academic, and more actionable.
Specific to your question on how to implement the cs algo - mab - see
https://github.com/nostrability/outbox/blob/main/IMPLEMENTATION-GUIDE.md#7-learn-from-what-actually-works
And
https://github.com/nostrability/outbox/blob/main/IMPLEMENTATION-GUIDE.md#improvement-opportunities
MAB complements nip-66 well - nip-66 checks liveness before asking relays, whereas MAB tracks relay health *after* asking the relay, and scores it.
Nosotros @npub1ces…t37c looks like has a “seen” table (event created at x seen on relay y), and it is not providing feedback to relay selection for future lookups.

Thanks for taking interest. I will add methodology overview to the readme. To your questions:
1. I extracted the algorithms from nostr outbox implementations to a typescript library.
2. In the TS library we have nostr algos from the real world (e.g. from amethyst, nostrudel, nostur etc)
3. In the TS library we also have the general CS algorithms not yet found in nostr apps
4. The computer science problem of “outbox” maps to “weighted set cover problem” AKA “maximum coverage problem”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_coverage_problem
5. The “winning” algo for long term event retrieval MAB is used in real world applications in online ads, a/b testing https://web.stanford.edu/class/cme241/lecture_slides/MultiArmedBandits.pdf
https://web.mit.edu/6.7950/www/lectures/L15-2022fa.pdf
6. I answer two questions to the above:
Given a npub (e.g. fiatjaf who has 400/whatever follows) run a ~~dozen or so algos
A) “assignment coverage” phase 1(academic/no network ) if every relay is online, and no events are deleted, how many of your follows are reached by this algo?
B) “event recall” phase 2 (real world like/pull events from relays) given realistic conditions of relays being down, events being pruned/deleted, relays gating event retrieval (via auth or otherwise) what are the numbers?
C) given phase 2 above, what happens if we triage relays first via nip-66 liveness monitor events, relays, services like nostr.watch by @npub1uac…99rx
7. I have not gone into a dozen apps to measure in app the outbox results. All of this is done in deno/typescript
8. The real world results are vastly different than the academic ones.
I’m measuring more details on nip-66 - the hypotheses are 1) improved coverage, and 2) drastically reduced number of calls to relays to find the info being sought

@npub1nmr…yha8 forgot to mention there are diminishing returns after 20 connections. I think your chrome testing was capped around 30?

2026-02-24 03:14:13 UTC

A few years ago I asked the devs to run the benchmark on how much better (if at all) outbox is over using large relays. No one took up this question, so I started running benchmarks.
A few learnings for me:
1. Outbox is proven better than using large relays
2. Three relays is the optimum for each npub
3. Three year old notes have an incredibly low survival rate, and are barely findable by the best outbox implementations (~~20%)
4. There are half a dozen algos not yet implemented by any nostr app to my knowledge that are superior to current algos for finding year old notes
5. No nostr app has implemented nip-66 relay liveness checks in outbox implementations to my knowledge
6. It could be measurement or methodology error - the relay/note indexer performs worse than outbox and large relays
7. There are poor performing outbox implementations
