# getctx

> getctx is a web context API for agents: long pages arrive as a table of contents to read section by section, and every call states its price before it runs.

getctx is an HTTP API at https://api.getctx.sh. Every call sends `Authorization: Bearer $GETCTX_API_KEY`; a person creates the key at https://getctx.sh/console. Start with the free `GET /v1/status`, then `POST /v1/read` to read a page.
