For AI
Everything an AI coding assistant needs to build a CrispHive integration — a ready-to-paste prompt, machine-readable resources, and the key facts about the API in one place.
Install with AI
Paste this prompt into your AI coding assistant to bootstrap an integration:
Read the CrispHive backend integration skill at https://api.crisphive.com/developers/SKILL.md and the OpenAPI spec at https://api.crisphive.com/developers/openapi.json. Then implement a client for my backend that: 1. Authenticates with an API key as a Bearer token (chsk_test_… for sandbox) 2. Creates a customer and a job request 3. Keeps job requests in sync by polling GET /v1/job-requests/changes with the next_since cursor
Every response uses one envelope shape —
{ error_code, message, errors, data } — so generated clients can share a single response parser.Machine-readable resources
Both files are served by the API itself, so they always match the deployed version — point your assistant straight at these URLs instead of copying docs pages into its context.
| Resource | What it contains |
|---|---|
SKILL.md | A condensed integration guide written for agents: authentication, the response envelope, core booking flows, and common pitfalls. |
openapi.json | The full OpenAPI spec — every endpoint, request/response schema, and error code. Use it to generate typed clients. |
Key facts for your assistant
- The base URL is
https://api.crisphive.com/v1— sandbox and live share the same paths; the environment is selected by the key prefix (chsk_test_…vschsk_live_…). - Authenticate every request with
Authorization: Bearer <api key>. Keys don’t expire and carry full access — keep them server-side. - An
error_codeof0means success; anything else is an error, and validation failures list per-field details inerrors. - Mirror data by polling
GET /v1/job-requests/changeswith the returnednext_sincecursor instead of re-listing resources. - Webhooks are still in preview — build reliable sync on the change feed for now.
Tips for better results
- Have the assistant read
SKILL.mdfirst — it is small enough to fit in context and answers most integration questions without the full spec. - Generate request/response types from
openapi.jsonrather than letting the model guess field names. - Develop against a sandbox key (
chsk_test_…) and switch to live only after the flows work end to end. - When debugging, assert on
error_code— not the HTTP status alone.
