register-api

A command that registers an HTTP or WebSocket API as a reusable coding connection. An API is a service that software can call, and the command records its documentation and environment-variable key location.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add an API connection, provide its base URL and documentation link, and record endpoint details, usage notes, and known issues.
Why use it?
It avoids repeatedly explaining an API to the coding agent and keeps secret keys out of project files.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

register-api scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Run the register-api action of the project-with-reflect skill with arguments: $ARGUMENTS

The user can describe the API in plain language — its base URL, docs link, and which env var holds the key. Extract those from $ARGUMENTS and ask only for what's missing; they don't type positional args. Creates a connection under $PROJECT_WITH_REFLECT_ROOT/connections/<name>/ (transport http), installed as a skill /<name>. KEY_ENV_VAR is the name of the env var holding the key (e.g. SONIOX_API_KEY) — a pointer; the key itself stays in env/keychain, never on disk. docs_url (e.g. https://soniox.com/docs) is recorded in frontmatter for grounding — the skill fetches it before coding against the API. After registering, write the endpoints / usage / gotchas into <name>.md. Follow the skill's steps.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

register-api is a command published in the GitHub repository initialneil/project-with-reflect (13 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 260 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
