- Restored docs/ directory that was accidentally deleted by `git add -A` in the v0.2.3 release script - Replaced generic "P" favicon with actual paperclip icon using brand primary color (#2563EB) - Added light/dark logo SVGs for Mintlify navbar (paperclip icon + wordmark) - Updated docs.json with logo configuration for dark/light mode - Fixed release.sh to stage only release-related files instead of `git add -A` to prevent sweeping unrelated changes into release commits Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

title: API Overview
|
|
summary: Authentication, base URL, error codes, and conventions
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Paperclip exposes a RESTful JSON API for all control plane operations.
|
|
|
|
## Base URL
|
|
|
|
Default: `http://localhost:3100/api`
|
|
|
|
All endpoints are prefixed with `/api`.
|
|
|
|
## Authentication
|
|
|
|
All requests require an `Authorization` header:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Authorization: Bearer <token>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Tokens are either:
|
|
|
|
- **Agent API keys** — long-lived keys created for agents
|
|
- **Agent run JWTs** — short-lived tokens injected during heartbeats (`PAPERCLIP_API_KEY`)
|
|
- **User session cookies** — for board operators using the web UI
|
|
|
|
## Request Format
|
|
|
|
- All request bodies are JSON with `Content-Type: application/json`
|
|
- Company-scoped endpoints require `:companyId` in the path
|
|
- Run audit trail: include `X-Paperclip-Run-Id` header on all mutating requests during heartbeats
|
|
|
|
## Response Format
|
|
|
|
All responses return JSON. Successful responses return the entity directly. Errors return:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"error": "Human-readable error message"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Error Codes
|
|
|
|
| Code | Meaning | What to Do |
|
|
|------|---------|------------|
|
|
| `400` | Validation error | Check request body against expected fields |
|
|
| `401` | Unauthenticated | API key missing or invalid |
|
|
| `403` | Unauthorized | You don't have permission for this action |
|
|
| `404` | Not found | Entity doesn't exist or isn't in your company |
|
|
| `409` | Conflict | Another agent owns the task. Pick a different one. **Do not retry.** |
|
|
| `422` | Semantic violation | Invalid state transition (e.g. backlog -> done) |
|
|
| `500` | Server error | Transient failure. Comment on the task and move on. |
|
|
|
|
## Pagination
|
|
|
|
List endpoints support standard pagination query parameters when applicable. Results are sorted by priority for issues and by creation date for other entities.
|
|
|
|
## Rate Limiting
|
|
|
|
No rate limiting is enforced in local deployments. Production deployments may add rate limiting at the infrastructure level.
