# Platform API

> Coming soon. There is no public inference API to document yet — no endpoints, SDKs, or API keys.

Cortex does not have a public inference API today. There is no completions
endpoint, no SDK, and no API key to request. This page exists so the
navigation does not grow a reference for something that is not there.

## What is available now

| You want to…                                      | Use                                                              |
| ------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Ask questions, write, and research                | [Cortex Chat](/chat)                                             |
| Change a repository                               | [Cortex Code](/code)                                             |
| Delegate ongoing work to an agent with a computer | [Cortex Bot](/bot)                                               |
| Drive Code from a terminal, a script, or CI       | [Cortex CLI](/cli)                                               |
| Build a client against the app's error contract   | [Public API](/api/overview) and the [problem catalog](/problems) |

## What is not available

* **Model inference as a service.** No endpoint takes a prompt and returns a
  completion.
* **Platform API keys.** Metered inference keys are not issued, so there is
  nothing to generate in Settings.
* **An SDK.** No client library wraps a Platform API.

The [API tab](/api/overview) documents the RFC 9457 problem format the apps
and the CLI already use. That is the whole public API surface.

## What to do instead

Most requests that sound like an API call already have a product answer:

| The API-shaped ask                      | What exists today                                                   |
| --------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Run a prompt from a script              | The [CLI](/cli) — `cortex run` for a one-shot, `cortex exec` for CI |
| Automate a repository change            | A [Code session](/code), or `cortex exec` with a git diff           |
| Put an agent on a schedule              | A Bot [routine](/bot/routines)                                      |
| React to an error your integration sees | Branch on `code` from the [problem catalog](/problems)              |
| Connect an external tool to a chat      | An [MCP server](/chat/tools) under **Settings → Integrations**      |

These are product surfaces with their own sign-in, not API keys. If you need
something none of them covers, that is a gap in the Platform API — not a
hidden endpoint.

## When this changes

A Platform API would be announced on the [changelog](/changelog) and at
[cortex.foundation](https://cortex.foundation) first. Until an announcement
exists, treat any page or tool claiming to sell Platform API access as
unofficial.
