Typeshoot for developers: MCP endpoint and API keys

Endpoint

https://typeshoot.com/mcp

JSON-RPC 2.0 over Streamable HTTP. Each request gets a single JSON response; there is no SSE stream yet, which the spec allows. Results that render media include an MCP Apps card, so hosts that support it show the image, clip or audio inline.

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 for assistants: dynamic client registration, PKCE, refresh and revoke. Clients discover it from the WWW-Authenticate header and /.well-known metadata, so pasting the URL is enough.
API keys for scripts, CI and headless agents: create one in your dashboard and send it as Authorization: Bearer <key>. Keys act as you and spend your credits; revoke them there.

Try it

curl -s https://typeshoot.com/mcp \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TYPESHOOT_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

Billing

Every call that spends credits reserves its estimate first, settles at the real cost and refunds automatically if the job fails on our side. Call estimate_generation to price a job without running it, and get_credits_balance to check what’s left. Prices are on the pricing page and per model on /models.
