Research direction

Start with the API feed wiring referenced in pkg/api/feed.go around line 68, then trace how the epoch-based feed is implemented and exposed. The issue asks to make epoch-based feeds available through the API to handle sporadic updates in O(log n); done means the API supports that feed path. No tests or specific implementation files are named, so locate the relevant feed tests while tracing the code.
