What it does

Anytype API is an agent skill from anyproto/anytype-heart. Call Anytype's local HTTP API v2 directly — search, read, create and edit objects, queries, collections and chats over REST. Use when writing scripts, SDK code or curl against the API. For interactive note/task work prefer the anytype CLI and its skill (cmd/anytype/SKILL.md); this guide is the raw-HTTP layer beneath it.

Its SKILL.md is about 6.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 176 other files.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering REST APIs. The repository describes itself as: Shared library for Anytype clients.

When your agent uses it

  • Writing scripts
  • Curl against the API

Example prompts

  • “/anytype-api”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4028f83. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships script files (Go, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Anytype API loads about 6.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,424 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~84
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~6.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 3,424 words (~6,750 tokens).

“Local REST API at http://127.0.0.1:31009 (the Anytype app must be running). Every call sends Authorization: Bearer ; keys are created in the app (Settings → API keys) — the API mints none. Bodies are compact JSON, and every name this…”
