  title: Derive Folders API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: 'Derive''s HTTP API. Every response shape here is the single source of truth for the web client — generated from the same Zod schemas that back this reference, so the docs never drift from the running API.


    **Auth:** a session cookie (browser) or a bearer token (agents and the CLI). Most write routes are scoped to the caller''s active workspace. The `/v1` paths are the stable product surface; `/openapi.json` serves this spec and `/docs` renders it.'
