Orquesta Workstreams API
Named streams of work inside a project (branch, directory, purpose), each bound to one agent.

Every API here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.

title: Orquesta Public Workstreams API
version: '1.0'
summary: Programmatic access to prompts, logs, projects, agents, users, and the Batuta LLM proxy.
description: 'The Orquesta Public API exposes read access to your organization''s prompts, execution logs,
projects, agents, and users, plus an OpenAI-compatible chat-completions proxy ("Batuta LLM")
that routes across multiple upstream models with smart per-prompt classification.
All endpoints under `/api/v1/*` are stable, versioned, and safe to integrate against. Internal
dashboard endpoints (`/api/projects/[id]/batuta/*`, `/api/agent/*`, `/api/auth/*`, etc.) are
NOT part of this contract and may change without notice.
## Authentication
Pass an API key on every request via either header:
- `Authorization: Bearer `
- `X-API-Key: `
Three token prefixes are accepted; each carries different scope semantics:
| Prefix | Type | Scope | Scopes granted |
|----------|-------------------|-------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
| `oak_` | Org API key | Organization, or a chosen subset of its projects | DB-configured (any of `prompts:read`, `prompts:write`, `logs:read`, ...) |
| `oclt_` | CLI token | Organization | All four read scopes (synthesized), plus prompt submit |
| `oat_` | Agent token | Project (single) | All four read scopes; queries restricted to its project |
An `oclt_` inherits its creator''s access: an org owner or admin reaches every project,
anyone else only the projects they are a member of. Projects outside that set are
reported as not found.
An `oak_` is org-wide unless it was restricted to specific projects when it was created
(or edited afterwards). A restricted key sees only those projects in every listing, and
a request naming any other project is reported as not found — the same answer as a
project that does not exist, so a key cannot enumerate the organization.
Generate keys from the dashboard: https://getorquesta.com/dashboard/settings
## Errors
Non-Batuta endpoints return `{ "error": "human-readable message" }` with status codes
401 (missing/invalid key), 403 (scope/project mismatch), 404 (not found), 500 (internal).
Batuta proxy endpoints (`/chat/completions`, `/models`) return OpenAI-compatible errors:
`{ "error": { "message": "...", "type": "auth_error" | "billing_error" | "routing_error" | "proxy_error" } }`.'

summary: Create a workstream
operationId: createWorkstream
description: '`oclt_` and `oat_` act for the person they were minted for; `oak_` needs `workstreams:write`.
Without `agent_token_id` the workstream goes to the calling agent (`oat_`) or the project''s
most recently seen agent; 409 `NO_AGENT` when the project has none. `run_on_microvm: true`
moves it onto the metered on-demand runner — refused for `oat_`, and the acting person must be a
project admin. If that step fails the workstream still exists and the response carries `microvmError`.
An `oat_` (agent token) does not create: it files a **proposal** (optional `reason`, ≤500 chars)
and gets 202 `{proposal, status: pending}`; the workstream exists only once a project admin approves
it in Studio or the approvals inbox. Where proposals are not configured the agent''s POST creates directly (201).'
