Create tasks runs artifacts prepare upload
Reserve S3 object keys for task artifacts and return presigned POST forms for direct uploads.
Required API key scopes
task:writePath parameters
- idstring
- task_idstring
Request parameters
- artifactsarray
Response
Example request
POST /api /projects /:project_id /tasks /:task_id /runs /:id /artifacts /prepare_uploadExample response
Status 200 Prepared uploads for the requested artifacts
Status 400 Invalid artifact payload
Status 404 Run not found
Create tasks runs artifacts presign
Returns a temporary, signed URL that can be used to download a specific artifact.
Required API key scopes
task:readPath parameters
- idstring
- task_idstring
Request parameters
- storage_pathstring
Response
Example request
POST /api /projects /:project_id /tasks /:task_id /runs /:id /artifacts /presignExample response
Status 200 Presigned URL for the requested artifact
Status 400 Invalid request
Status 404 Artifact not found
Create tasks runs cancel
Stop an active cloud run. Interrupts the agent, snapshots interactive sessions for later resume, tears down the sandbox, and marks the run cancelled. Idempotent: cancelling a finished run returns it unchanged.
Required API key scopes
task:writePath parameters
- idstring
- task_idstring
Request parameters
- reasonstringnull
Response
Example request
POST /api /projects /:project_id /tasks /:task_id /runs /:id /cancelExample response
Status 200 Run already finished; returned unchanged
Status 202 Cancellation accepted
Status 400 Run is not a cloud run
Status 404 Task run not found
Status 503 Cancellation could not be delivered; safe to retry
Create tasks runs clear conversation
Record a /clear boundary in a finished run's log so the next run in the chain starts with an empty conversation. Its checkpoints, artifacts, and visible history are unaffected. Only for a finished run: an active one has an agent that owns the clear, so send /clear to it as an ordinary message instead.
Required API key scopes
task:writePath parameters
- idstring
- task_idstring
Response
Example request
POST /api /projects /:project_id /tasks /:task_id /runs /:id /clear_conversationExample response
Status 200 Run with the boundary recorded
Status 404 Run not found
Status 409 Run is still active; send /clear to its agent
Create tasks runs command
Queue user_message JSON-RPC commands through the task workflow and forward sandbox control commands to the agent server. Supports user_message, cancel, close, permission_response, set_config_option, mcp_response, native Pi RPC commands, and Pi queue operations.

Response
Example request
POST /api /projects /:project_id /tasks /:task_id /runs /:id /commandExample response
Status 200 Agent server response
Status 400 Invalid command or no active sandbox
Status 403 PostHog Desktop access is required to message this run's agent
Status 404 Task run not found
Status 429 Organization reached its PostHog Desktop usage limit

Retrieve tasks runs connection token
Generate a JWT token for direct connection to the sandbox. Valid for 24 hours.
Required API key scopes
task:writePath parameters
- idstring
- task_idstring
Response
Example request
GET /api /projects /:project_id /tasks /:task_id /runs /:id /connection_tokenExample response

Status 403 PostHog Desktop access is required
Status 404 Task run not found
Status 429 Organization reached its PostHog Desktop usage limit
Retrieve tasks runs logs
Fetch the logs for a task run as JSONL. If the run resumes from another (state.resume_from_run_id), each ancestor's log is concatenated first (oldest ancestor → ... → this run) so resume consumers see a single continuous history and can find the most recent git_checkpoint event regardless of which run emitted it.
Required API key scopes

Example request
GET /api /projects /:project_id /tasks /:task_id /runs /:id /logsExample response

Retrieve tasks runs stream
Server-Sent Events stream of task run events. Events carry an id: line (a Redis stream id) usable as a resume cursor.
The server caps each connection at 900 seconds: it emits event: end with data: {"type": "rotated"} and closes. This does NOT mean the run finished — reconnect with the Last-Event-ID header set to the last received event id to resume without gaps or duplicates. Only treat the stream as complete when the run itself reaches a terminal status.
?start=latest consumers must also carry Last-Event-ID across reconnects: reconnecting without it re-resolves to the then-current latest event, silently skipping anything published while disconnected.
SDK consumers: do not call the generated fetch wrapper for this path — it will buffer the entire stream. Use the URL builder (getTasksRunsStreamRetrieveUrl) with a streaming fetch/EventSource-style consumer and the Last-Event-ID header instead.
