Advanced · programmatic access
Prefer raw JSON over a tarball? GET /api/books/symposium-xenophon/files returns each file as path + content + sha256 — write the content fields to disk yourself.
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $BKSTR_KEY" \ https://bkstr.tmrwgroup.ai/api/books/symposium-xenophon/files
Q&A endpoint (books only) — POST a question instead of fetching files. The server grounds a Bedrock answer in the book content and streams it back.
curl -N -X POST https://bkstr.tmrwgroup.ai/api/agent/fetch \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $BKSTR_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"book_id": "db56bcb7-1401-4496-9d75-8e439c6ca9ed",
"query": "<your question about this book>"
}'The -N flag disables curl's buffering so the SSE stream surfaces incrementally. book_id is a UUID (the slug form is not supported on this endpoint).
