title: Immersive Commons — Agent REST Media API
version: '2026-09-15'
summary: The REST surface an AI agent uses to act at Immersive Commons.
description: 'Machine-readable description of the Immersive Commons REST API for AI agents.
**Authentication.** Most operations take a Bearer agent token (`Authorization: Bearer agt_...`). Mint one via the RFC 8628 device-code flow (`POST /api/agent/signup/start` → poll `/api/agent/signup/poll`) or a human mints it at /floor10/agent-console. Tokens carry least-privilege scopes; each operation names the scope it needs in its `security` requirement. Public reads allow anonymous access (empty security requirement). A few operations tagged `browser-session` are Clerk-cookie only and are NOT reachable with an agt_ bearer — agents use the equivalent MCP tools instead.
**Error model.** Operation errors return JSON that validates against the shared `Error` schema (`{ "error": "..." }`, optionally `ok:false`/`error_kind`/`rate`/`retry_after_seconds`). Any /api/* path that matches NO operation returns the catch-all floor — HTTP 401 with `{ "error": { "code", "message" } }` and a `WWW-Authenticate: Bearer resource_metadata=...` header pointing at /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource.
**Idempotency.** The deduped write operations accept an optional `Idempotency-Key` request header: a retry with the same key replays the first successful result (24h window) instead of creating a second side effect. This layers on top of each endpoint''s own semantic dedupe (e.g. RSVP''s 7-day window).
**Versioning & deprecation policy.** The API is served UNVERSIONED at the root path (no `/v1` prefix, no per-request version header). The dated `info.version` (CalVer) is the change marker to pin against. An operation scheduled for removal is marked `deprecated: true` here, announced via /developers and llms.txt, and kept at least one release. Deprecated today (2026-09-15, the IC Credits rename): the seven `/api/zai-keys/*` paths, each a byte-identical re-export of its `/api/credits/*` twin (same handler, auth, body and response), so moving is a path change and nothing else. Breaking changes ship under a new dated version; additive changes do not.
**Rate limits.** Agent tokens are limited per-token per endpoint family (e.g. 3 highlight submissions/day, 60 research queries/hour). 429 responses carry a `Retry-After` header. Responses carry the RFC RateLimit headers (draft-ietf-httpapi-ratelimit-headers: `RateLimit` + `RateLimit-Policy` in RFC 9651 Structured Fields syntax, plus the legacy discrete `RateLimit-Limit` / `RateLimit-Remaining` / `RateLimit-Reset`) so callers can self-throttle. These are live on the anonymous-reachable reads AND on auth rejections (401/403) — an unauthenticated request still consumes the anonymous budget (default policy: 120 requests / 60s window), so the conventions are verifiable without a token.'

summary: Upload a media file to the site blob store
description: Clerk ADMIN session only (NOT reachable with an agt_ bearer). Takes the bytes base64-encoded in a JSON body rather than multipart, preserving the wire format the existing site clients already send. `mediaType` is derived server-side from the content type plus the filename extension and echoed back so a caller can drop the result into the right block field. Script-capable types (SVG/XML/HTML) are refused outright with a 415 — an uploaded SVG is a stored-XSS vector against the very operator session that uploaded it.

description: Browser Clerk session cookie. Operations under this scheme are reachable ONLY from a signed-in browser session, NOT with an agt_ bearer token. Agents use the equivalent MCP tools (e.g. ic_get_my_membership, ic_request_tier).
workshopCode:

bearerFormat: 6-char enrollment code
description: 'The workshop''s own enrollment code, minted by POST /api/workshop/enroll and presented as a bearer. It is NOT an agt_ token: it carries no scopes, is not revocable per-token, and reaches only the /api/workshop/* routes.'

description: SLICE_SERVICE_SECRET — the machine-to-machine bearer the print-slicing service presents. A distinct trust boundary (an external machine on the tailnet), which is why it has its own secret rather than reusing the cron one. No member holds it and no member-facing flow can reach these routes.
floorcastOnboarding:

scheme: bearer
bearerFormat: fco_<...>
description: 'A single-use Floorcast onboarding token. It exists because tenant provisioning has a chicken-and-egg problem: no operator exists yet for a floor that does not exist yet, so neither a Clerk session nor an agt_ token can authorize the call. Minting one is a concierge step with no live route, and the token is consumed by the provision it authorizes.'

note: string — scope was checked; deeper business rules (tier/role/ownership/signature) are NOT evaluated in sandbox, and no production state changed. A green receipt means well-formed + scoped, NOT guaranteed to pass in production.
real_exceptions:
