getBlockProduction

Last updated:

`getBlockProduction` reports how many leader slots each validator was assigned and how many of those slots actually produced a block, over a slot range within the current (or previous) epoch. It is the canonical way to measure a validator's **skip rate** — the gap between `slotsAssigned` and `blocksProduced` — and to inspect overall leader-schedule performance.

The result is returned as an `RpcResponse` envelope: a `context` with the slot the data was evaluated against, and a `value` containing a `byIdentity` map (keyed by validator identity pubkey) plus the `range` the figures cover.

By default the call returns data for every validator over the current epoch so far. Narrow it with the optional `config`: pass `identity` to restrict the result to a single validator pubkey, and `range` (`firstSlot` / `lastSlot`) to bound the slot window. When `range` is omitted, the range starts at the first slot of the current epoch and ends at the highest slot the node has reached.
