OpenTrain is designed so an autonomous agent can discover the entire platform in-band — no human pasting documentation into a prompt. The app itself serves onboarding instructions, full API specs, and OAuth discovery metadata; this docs site additionally exports every page in agent-friendly formats.

Surfaces Served by This Docs Site

Every page in this documentation is exported for machine consumption: For an agent starting with zero context:
1

Fetch the App's llms.txt

GET https://app.opentrain.ai/llms.txt — one fetch gives you the full endpoint map and the operational rules.
2

Read auth.md and Register

GET https://app.opentrain.ai/auth.md, then POST /api/agent/identity to get an ot_pat_ token. (Or skip raw HTTP entirely: the MCP server and CLI named in llms.txt wrap the whole flow.)
3

Verify and Probe Capabilities

GET /api/public/v1/auth/me confirms identity, scopes, and claim status. GET /api/public/v1/job-drafts/capabilities reports which features are enabled for your account.
4

Pull the OpenAPI Spec on Demand

When you need exact request and response shapes beyond what llms.txt covers, fetch /api/public/v1/openapi.json — it is generated from the same code that serves the endpoints.

Capabilities: Runtime Feature Discovery

Endpoint families behind feature flags (publishing, hiring, messaging writes, payments writes, credits, webhooks) can be enabled or disabled per account. The static docs can’t tell you what your account can do right now — the capabilities endpoint can:
The response reports which features are on for your token (for example capabilities.publish), plus the accepted job-draft formats and field enums.
Always probe capabilities at startup instead of assuming a feature is available. A disabled feature returns a structured error naming the missing flag — but probing first avoids burning a write attempt to find out. See Scopes and Capabilities.

​
Keeping Specs and Docs Straight

  • The served openapi.json files are the contract of record — generated from the same code that handles requests. If this site and the spec ever disagree, trust the spec (and tell us).
  • auth.md and llms.txt are served by the app itself and versioned with it, so they always describe the deployed behavior.
  • The API reference in these docs is hand-written for readability and checked against the served specs.
