API reference

Upload a local image as a temporary project asset, create an idempotent job, poll its status, then download the authenticated result.

curl "https://app.clearcrowds.com/api/v1/account" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLEARCROWDS_API_KEY"

Private Beta CLI

The CLI uses browser-based device authorization for people and CLEARCROWDS_API_KEY for CI. It uploads local files directly to the API and writes completed results atomically.

Install

The CLI is not published to npm during Private Beta. After receiving the private source, run this from the repository root (Node.js 20.19+ required).

npm install --global ./packages/agent-tools
clearcrowds setup

Sign in and edit

clearcrowds login
