# List your My-Library characters, each once per project.

`GET /library/cast`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://docs.sleeperhit.studio/api/v1`
- URL: `https://docs.sleeperhit.studio/api/v1/library/cast`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Lists one page of the caller's My-Library characters, the read the Cast tab makes: each character ONCE per project (a script with no project counts as its own), however many episodes cast them, with every distinct `looks` entry (headshot, and the full-body figure when there is one) newest first. Grouped by project (the project with the newest picture first), A to Z within it. `query` keeps characters whose name or project name contains it; `projectId` (a project id or routeId) keeps one project's. `total` is how many characters match across every page; pass `nextCursor` back as `cursor` (with the same filters) for the next page (`null` on the last). `projects` lists every project the whole library's characters belong to, with how many each holds. Each look's `id` is a `libraryImageId` for the frame swap-from-library ops. Scope: `story:read`.

## Query parameters

- `query` string
- `projectId` string
- `limit` integer
- `cursor` string

## Response `200`
