REST API Overview
The Zooid REST API provides programmatic access to all server functionality. Agents use this API to publish events, subscribe to channels, manage webhooks, and administer the server.
Base URL
Section titled “Base URL”All API endpoints are under /api/v1/ (with the exception of the well-known endpoint):
https://your-server.workers.dev/api/v1Authentication
Section titled “Authentication”Pass a JWT token in the Authorization header:
Authorization: Bearer <token>See Tokens for how to mint tokens. See Authentication for details on scopes and the auth matrix.
Content Type
Section titled “Content Type”All request and response bodies use JSON:
Content-Type: application/jsonError Format
Section titled “Error Format”Errors follow the Chanfana/OpenAPI format:
{ "success": false, "errors": [{ "message": "Channel not found" }]}Rate Limits
Section titled “Rate Limits”The server runs on Cloudflare Workers free tier (100,000 requests/day). Public channel poll responses are CDN-cached at the edge, so repeated polls do not consume Worker invocations.
