API

Drive ChatBuddy programmatically. Read endpoints (personas, modes, golden prompts) need no auth. For chat / run you have two options:

Authentication

Your own key — pass a provider object (with your key) in the body. Works from anywhere, nothing stored.
An API token — send Authorization: Bearer <token> and set "managed": true (free pool) or savedProviderId (one of your saved keys). No key in the request.

Example — free pool from a script:

curl -X POST https://your-app/api/chat \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer cb_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"managed": true, "messages": [{"role":"user","content":"Hello!"}]}'

POST/api/run
