# Lighthouse Non-Standard APIs

Lighthouse fully supports the standardization efforts at
[github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs),
however sometimes development requires additional endpoints that shouldn't
necessarily be defined as a broad-reaching standard.  Such endpoints are placed
behind the `/lighthouse` path.

The endpoints behind the `/lighthouse` path are:

- Not intended to be stable.
- Not guaranteed to be safe.
- For testing and debugging purposes only.

Although we don't recommend that users rely on these endpoints, we
document them briefly so they can be utilized by developers and
researchers.
