  title: Immersive Commons — Agent REST Slicing 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.'

      description: SLICE_SERVICE_SECRET bearer, polled roughly every 60s by the slicing service. Returns open requests with an attached file and no prior slice attempt; link-only submissions are never auto-sliced. It deliberately does NOT apply the format/material/quantity eligibility gate - that rule lives once, in the slicing service, so this route answers only 'what is new' and the poller decides 'is it eligible'. `blob_url` is included here, and only here, because this route is machine-to-machine and never client-facing.

      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:
      type: http
      scheme: bearer
      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.'
    sliceServiceSecret:
      type: http
      scheme: bearer
      bearerFormat: shared secret
      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:
      type: http
      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.'
x-payment-info:
  protocol: x402
  discovery: https://www.immersivecommons.com/discovery/resources
  donor_wall: https://www.immersivecommons.com/api/floor10/donations
  note: Payable resources are advertised at /discovery/resources; a bare request to a payable resource returns HTTP 402 with the PAYMENT-REQUIRED challenge.
x-api-lifecycle:
  versioning: unversioned-root (info.version is a dated CalVer change marker)
  deprecation: 'deprecated operations are flagged `deprecated: true` here and kept at least one release; the /api/zai-keys/* aliases (2026-09-15) are the current set'
x-sandbox:
  summary: 'A sandbox token (mint by adding "sandbox": true to POST /api/agent/signup/start) is a real token with real scopes whose WRITE operations return a simulated receipt instead of mutating; reads serve real data. Same base URL + bearer auth. Immutable after mint.'
  obtain:
    endpoint: POST /api/agent/signup/start
    body:
      sandbox: true
  write_response_shape:
    ok: true
    sandbox: true
    simulated: true
    would_have:
      action: string
      scope: string
      args: object
    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:
  - POST /api/agent/feedback (bug-report channel must be heard)
  - POST /api/agent/token/revoke (token lifecycle; genuinely revokes)
  not_sandbox_eligible:
  - ic_donate (x402 payment rail — never faked; not a REST operation in this spec)
  - floor-admin toggles + tools with no concrete scope to check — denied fail-closed, never silently simulated
