# Runtime API
The Runtime API subsystem is responsible for providing a single point of access to runtime state data via a set of
pre-determined queries. This prevents shared ownership of a blockchain client resource by providing
## Protocol
Input: [`RuntimeApiMessage`](../../types/overseer-protocol.md#runtime-api-message)
Output: None
## Functionality
On receipt of `RuntimeApiMessage::Request(relay_parent, request)`, answer the request using the post-state of the
`relay_parent` provided and provide the response to the side-channel embedded within the request.
## Jobs
> TODO Don't limit requests based on parent hash, but limit caching. No caching should be done for any requests on
> `relay_parent`s that are not active based on `ActiveLeavesUpdate` messages. Maybe with some leeway for things that
> have just been stopped.
