The scoring engine IS the NIP-85 publisher. It crawls kind 3 follow events from relays, builds the social graph (51K nodes, 621K edges), computes PageRank, then publishes the results as kind 30382 events — which is the NIP-85 spec. Relays and clients consume those events without needing to know how the scores were computed. Our tool at github.com/joelklabo/wot-scoring does the full loop: crawl -> score -> publish -> serve via HTTP API. Anyone can run their own instance with different seed pubkeys or different algorithms and publish competing scores. That is the design — no single trust oracle, just a marketplace of signed assertions.
