# Machine-readable API catalog

> No auth, no rate limit — a structured-JSON catalog an MCP server (or any agent) can parse to self-discover how to use Brew: auth, permission scopes, rate limits, flat credit costs, the error envelope, and the full endpoint list (derived from this same OpenAPI document, so it never drifts). Returns a generic JSON object; read the live response for the concrete shape.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /api-reference/openapi-public-v1.yaml get /v1/help
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Brew Public API v1
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Generated from the Brew app Zod contracts (`lib/<domain>/contracts.ts`).
    This file is the source of truth for the public API documentation.


    ## Resource paths


    Identity lives in the URL path (`/v1/analytics/sends/{sendId}`) — never in a
    query param or request body. Collections are plural top-level segments
    (`/v1/emails`); query params exist only for collection pagination + simple
    filters. Relationships are sub-resources (`/v1/emails/{emailId}/sends`), and
    non-CRUD operations are explicit action sub-paths
    (`/v1/automations/{automationId}/test`).


    ## Response envelopes


    - Lists: `{ data: Row[], pagination: { limit, cursor: string | null, hasMore
    } }` — loop `while (cursor !== null)`.

    - Get-one and writes: the bare resource (creates return `201`; async sends
    `202`).

    - Deletes: `{ <idField>, deleted: boolean }` — idempotent (already-gone ids
    resolve with `deleted: false`).

    - Errors: `{ error: { code, type, message, param?, suggestion, docs } }` —
    branch on the stable `code`.

    - ONE exception: `POST /v1/automations/triggers/{triggerEventId}/fire`
    responds with the legacy fire envelope `{ success, status, code, message,
    receivedAt, details }` (shared with internal webhook infrastructure).


    ## Brand scoping


    API keys are always scoped to a specific brand. The brand is resolved from
    the key on every request. **No public endpoint accepts a `brandId` field**
    in its request body or query string — sending one returns `400
    INVALID_REQUEST`. Resources that exist in a different brand surface as `404`
    (never `403`), so the API does not leak cross-brand existence. `GET
    /v1/templates` is organization-wide and not constrained to the key brand.
    Brands themselves are managed in the Brew dashboard.


    ## Idempotency


    Send an `Idempotency-Key` header (≤ 100 chars) on any POST your code might
    retry. Same key + same body within 24h returns the original response; same
    key + different body returns `409 IDEMPOTENCY_CONFLICT`.

      Email designs and sending. Generate a design with the Brew email agent,
      edit, version, restore — then send it: `POST /v1/sends` delivers a design
      to a target (a saved audience, an inline list, or a single address) via a
      verified domain, and `POST /v1/sends/test` fires a one-off test. Sending
      is not campaign-specific. Send reads (list, status, per-send event feeds)
      live under Analytics (`/v1/analytics/sends`).
