## OpenAPI

openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Narya Host API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    The contract between the Narya host and every client. One long-lived host
    runs on your machine and serves this API over a Unix socket in your Narya
    home. Narya creates the socket owner-only, and file permissions are the
    whole authorization. There is no password, no token and no TLS. The terminal
    client and the one-shot command that Lerian ships drive this API, and a
    client you write drives the same one.


    Results never arrive on the response of the request that caused them.
    Submitting a message returns 202 with a turn id. Everything the turn
    produces streams over GET /v1/events as server-sent events with a typed
    envelope, and a stream resumes from a Last-Event-ID header.


    One error envelope: code, title, message, and fields on 422. Codes are NRY-
    followed by four digits. A paged list answers items, limit and a nextCursor
    when more remains. Cursors are opaque.

            at all, which makes costUsd a floor rather than the bill. Pricing is
            not resolved for every model, so a zero here can mean "free" or
            "unknown" — this field is what tells them apart, and a reader
            showing money must say so rather than print a total it cannot stand
            behind. Absent means the same as true.
