+Consensus API
+=============
+
+This document contains detailed descriptions of the consensus's API routes. For
+an overview of the consensus' API routes, see
+[API.md#consensus](/doc/API.md#consensus).  For an overview of all API routes,
+see [API.md](/doc/API.md)
+
+There may be functional API calls which are not documented. These are not
+guaranteed to be supported beyond the current release, and should not be used
+in production.
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+The consensus set manages everything related to consensus and keeps the
+blockchain in sync with the rest of the network. The consensus set's API
+endpoint returns information about the state of the blockchain.
