## OpenAPI

````yaml /api/openapi.yaml post /comments
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Slog API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >
    Slog is an AI-native project management tool. This reference covers the core
    REST API

    for managing tasks, projects, teams, milestones, workspaces, and invites.


    ## Authentication


    All authenticated endpoints accept either an **API key** (header
    `slog-api-key`) or a

    **Bearer token** (header `Authorization: Bearer <token>`). Tokens are
    returned by the

    signup, invite-redeem, and OAuth flows. API keys can be created in the Slog
    dashboard.


    ## Field selection


    Every list and get endpoint accepts a `fields` query parameter to control
    which fields

    are returned. Use comma-separated field names; nested objects can be
    selected with brace

    notation:


    ```

    fields=id,title,status,assignee{name,email}

    ```


    When omitted, a default set of fields is returned for each resource.


    ## Filtering


    List endpoints support structured filters using bracket notation:


    ```

    filter[eq][status]=TODO

    filter[contains][title]=auth

    filter[in][status]=TODO&filter[in][status]=IN_PROGRESS

    filter[gte][dueDate]=2026-01-01

    ```


    Supported operators: `eq`, `neq`, `gt`, `gte`, `lt`, `lte`, `contains`,
    `startsWith`, `in`.


    ## Sorting


    ```

    sort[createdAt]=desc

    sort[title]=asc

    ```


    ## Pagination


    List endpoints use cursor-based pagination. Pass the `nextCursor` from the
    previous

    response as the `cursor` parameter to fetch the next page. A `null`
    nextCursor means

    you've reached the end.

    description: >
      Tasks are the primary unit of work. They belong to a team and optionally
      to a project.

      Subtasks are created by setting `parentId` on the child task. Each task
      gets a

      Teams can be

      nested via `parentId`.
