# Root

`GET /`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.snipget.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.snipget.ai/`
- Auth: none declared

Root endpoint — canonical envelope example. Unauthenticated.

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- SuccessResponse: Canonical success envelope.
  - `status` string
  - `confidence` number, required
  - `result` unknown, required
  - `meta` ResponseMeta: Metadata attached to every successful response.
    - `version` string
    - `build` string
    - `elapsed_ms` integer
    - `cost_units` integer: Cost units charged for this call: one per item processed (a batch of N items = N; live-registry lookups bill 2 per item). A call is one request; cost units are the billing measure.
    - `request_id` string, nullable
    - `trace` string[], nullable
    - `rate_limit_remaining` integer, nullable
    - `rate_limit_reset` integer, nullable
    - `quota_remaining` integer, nullable: Cost units left in the plan's monthly included bucket before this call's charge lands (None on unlimited tiers).
    - `quota_reset` integer, nullable: Unix timestamp when the monthly included bucket resets.
    - `credit_remaining_usd` number, nullable: Prepaid overage-allowance balance in USD, populated once the included cost units are used up and this call is drawing on it.
    - `receipt` ReceiptMeta: Opt-in execution receipt (ADR #68 B1) — caller-verifiable hashes. Requested with the ``include_receipt=true`` query parameter (free, like ``include_trace``). Reproduce either hash with any RFC 8785 (JCS) library: ``input_hash = sha256(jcs({"tool": <request path>, "args": <your JSON body minus include_trace/include_receipt>}))``; ``result_hash = sha256(jcs(result))``. For deterministic tools (everything except the generators) the same input on the same ``build`` reproduces ``result_hash`` — disputes are honored by replay.
      - `receipt_id` string, required
      - `build` string, required
      - `input_hash` string, nullable
      - `result_hash` string, nullable
      - `error` string, nullable
      - `message` string, nullable
