  title: pre.dev AI Gateway API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    One OpenAI-compatible API for hundreds of models from every major lab, paid
    for in pre.dev credits.


    - **Base URL:** `https://api.pre.dev/v1` for the OpenAI SDKs. The Anthropic
    SDKs take `https://api.pre.dev` and add `/v1/messages` themselves.

    - **Auth:** the workspace API key (`pdk_…`) from Integrations → Built-in in
    the pre.dev dashboard, as `Authorization: Bearer <key>` or `x-api-key`. Keep
    it on a server: it spends the workspace's credits.

    - **Models:** send ids exactly as `GET /v1/models` lists them, such as
    `anthropic/claude-sonnet-5`.

    - **Public directory:** `GET /v1/models/public` lists every model with no
    key and no prices.

    - **Charges:** each call is charged in credits from its metered cost.
    Non-streaming responses report the charge in `x-predev-credits-charged`;
    `GET /v1/generation` reports it for any call. A request is refused with
    `402` before it runs when the balance cannot cover it. Catalog, usage,
    generation and file reads are free.

    - **Limits:** 600 requests per minute per workspace, 30 on the free trial. A
    free workspace can spend 5 credits on AI calls in total, then gets `402
    subscription_required`. Reads other than `GET /v1/files` do not count toward
    the per-minute limit.

    - **Errors:** errors raised by pre.dev use the OpenAI error shape with a
    `predev` object (`GatewayError`). Errors from the model keep their HTTP
    status and message (`ModelError`). Every inference response carries
    `x-predev-request-id`.

    - **Streaming:** `stream: true` returns server-sent events in the native
    format of each endpoint. Lines that start with `:` are keep-alives.

      summary: List files
      description: >-
        Lists the files this workspace uploaded through the gateway, newest
        first by default. To page, pass `last_id` as `after` while `has_more` is
        true.


        A page can hold fewer than `limit` files: a file whose read fails or
        takes more than 5 seconds is skipped, and a call that reaches 10 seconds
        leaves the rest for the next page. The ids of skipped files are listed
        in `predev.skipped`, which appears only when something was skipped;
        fetch those with `GET /v1/files/{id}`.


        This call counts toward the per-minute request limit.
