Authenticate to GitHub (device flow or PAT), clone repositories, stage and commit, sync (fetch/pull/push), list repos and branches, check working-tree status, and open pull requests. The token is kept in env and is never returned in any reply. Cwd-scoped reads (status, repos, branches) and the clone/commit/sync/PR mutators all operate against the working directory the requesting session is bound to via X-Hoody-Cwd. The auth routes (auth/status, auth/login, auth/login/poll, auth/active, auth/logout) have no cwd dimension.
Reports the GitHub authentication state (github.auth.status) from the account store. The token lives only in env and is never returned. This route has no realm/container/cwd/config_dir dimension, so every per-request scope header returns 400 realm_scope_unsupported.
Per-request working-directory scope: the .hoody project layer / record cwd / tool+workflow cwd. Required by routes that resolve a cwd (e.g. POST /todos; createTodo also accepts a body cwd).

Begins a GitHub login. With no body token this starts a DEVICE flow and returns the non-secret {device_code, user_code, verification_uri, interval, expires_in}; the user authorizes that URL out of band, then POST /api/v1/agent/github/auth/login/poll completes the login. With a body token (a PAT) this instead validates and persists the token directly (no device flow), returning the linked {login, host}. For GitHub Enterprise (GHES) set body host (default github.com) on both the device-flow start and the PAT-add. The token lives only in env and is never returned.

host
string
No
GitHub host for GitHub Enterprise (GHES); defaults to github.com. Must match the host on the subsequent poll call.
activate
boolean
No
Whether the linked account becomes the ACTIVE one. Defaults to FALSE — linking stores the credential without changing which account is in use, because activation decides the identity your next push authenticates as. Send true when RECOVERING from an expired/revoked token: the account is linked and activated in this single call, so no follow-up githubSetActiveAccount is needed. The first account ever linked becomes active regardless, since none was. A non-boolean value is rejected.
Polls an in-flight GitHub device-flow login. Forward the {device_code, interval, expires_in} the start reply returned; the call blocks until the user authorizes (or the flow expires/cancels), then validates and persists the resulting token. Required to COMPLETE a device-flow login over HTTP (the start call only returns the verification URL / device code) — BLOCK.

Honor the Retry-After header and retry; reduce the request rate.

service_unavailable
Service unavailable
The daemon could not service the request (too busy, or a per-client stream concurrency cap was hit).
Per-request working-directory scope: the .hoody project layer / record cwd / tool+workflow cwd. Required by routes that resolve a cwd (e.g. POST /todos; createTodo also accepts a body cwd).
X-Hoody-Config-Dir
header
string
No
Per-request --config-dir override selecting which on-disk .hoody install a stateless read/write resolves (HoodyPaths).
X-Hoody-Container
header
string
No
Per-request bound remote container (omitted = local). Rejected (400) on routes with no container dimension.
X-Hoody-Realm
header
string
No
Per-request realm selector: "global" or a 24-hex id (also accepted as ?realm=). Rejected (400 realm_scope_unsupported) on active-only / no-realm routes.
realm
query
string
No
Per-request realm selector — the in:query alias of the X-Hoody-Realm header (read only when the header is absent): "global" or a 24-hex id. Rejected (400 realm_scope_unsupported) on active-only / no-realm routes.
Runs fetch → pull → push as one logical sync, stopping at the FIRST non-ok step so a later push never runs against a half-synced tree. The body direction lets a caller pull-only (fetch+pull) or push-only; default is the full sync (this is BODY-only — there is no ?direction alias). Destructive. 502 sync_step_failed carries the steps that ran plus the failing one under details.

bad_request
Bad request
The request was malformed or carried invalid parameters.

realm_scope_unsupported
Realm scope unsupported
A per-request realm header was supplied to an active-only / global-no-realm RPC, which has no realm dimension to scope.
Omit the realm header on this route, or open a session to scope by realm.

admin_unauthorized
Rejected by the daemon’s own admin gate
Forbidden — the request was refused by the server’s admin gate.
Run the daemon with socket auth (--auth-token-path) and no separate admin capability so its own gate allows HTTP requests forwarded from the gateway; or, for the interactive TUI Memory tab over the socket, present the daemon’s configured Memory-admin token.
forbidden
Forbidden (not via the Hoody proxy)
Forbidden — the request did not reach the service through the public endpoint.
Reach the agent through hoody-proxy (e.g. hoody agent … → platform → proxy), not by connecting to the container directly.

payload_too_large
Payload too large
The request body exceeds the configured size cap (MaxBodyBytes). The gateway rejects an oversized body at the edge (http.MaxBytesReader) before the handler reads it — a well-formed-but-large body is a size violation, not a JSON syntax error.
Reduce the request body below the configured limit (default 8 MiB); split a large payload into smaller requests.
