# Platform status

> What is stable today, what may still change, and what Docket promises about the API.

Read this before you build anything you plan to maintain. **Docket's public API is in early
access.** Its current interfaces are available, but they do not carry a compatibility promise yet.

|                         | Status                                                                                        |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| REST API `/v1`          | Available. **Unversioned in practice.** `/v1` is a path, and not yet a compatibility promise. |
| MCP server              | Available. Follows the MCP specification, including its authorization spec.                   |
| OAuth 2.1 authorization | Available. Standards-based, and the most stable thing here.                                   |
| Published SDK           | **None.** No client library for any language.                                                 |
| Outbound webhooks       | **None.** Docket receives webhooks and sends none.                                            |
| Deprecation policy      | **None yet.**                                                                                 |

## What may change

<Warning>
  Docket can rename a field, reshape a response envelope, or change a tool's arguments with no
  deprecation window.
</Warning>

* **Prefer MCP over REST** where both would work. Docket can reshape the task payload underneath
  `capture` without renaming the tool.
* **Never parse an identifier.** ULIDs are opaque.
* **Branch on the error `code`.** Match `not_found`, never "We could not find that".
* **Pin nothing to the byte shape of `/v1/openapi.json`.** It changes when the service changes.

## What is stable

Build on these specifications:

* OAuth 2.1 with PKCE, and the discovery documents of RFC 8414, RFC 9728, and RFC 8707.
* MCP Streamable HTTP transport semantics.
* RFC 9457 problem documents as the error envelope.

The nouns are stable too. Organization, Team, Initiative, Program, Project, Cycle, Task, Update,
and Comment have meant the same thing for a long time. Docket changes the fields underneath them,
not the nouns.

## No SDK, and what to do instead

Every package in the Docket repository is private. Generate your REST client from
`/v1/openapi.json`, which anyone can fetch and which describes the deployed service. For MCP, use
your language's client library.

## When the docs and the API disagree

Believe the API. Docket renders [`/v1/docs`](/docs/developers/rest-api) from the running service.
