Agent Quickstart

Install agent skills, create an API key, then make a first Jobs API call with cURL, the CLI, Python, or TypeScript.

Coding agents should fetch https://docs.worklittle.com/agent-onboarding/SKILL.md.

Install the agent skill

Paste this into your coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and others):

set up worklittle.com/SKILL.md

Call the API

cURL

#### 1. Install agent skills

Run this in the project the agent is working in:

npx skills add https://docs.worklittle.com

Or npx skills add worklittle/agent-skills. Full list: Agent skills.

#### 2. Create an API key

Sign in to Worklittle Business, open API keys, and choose Create API key. Copy the sk-wl-api01-... secret once.

Give the key jobs:read. If paid routes return 402 Payment Required, open Billing and fix billing before retrying.

#### 3. Set your API key

Export the key as an environment variable. The SDK and CLI read WORKLITTLE_API_KEY automatically.

export WORKLITTLE_API_KEY="sk-wl-api01-..."

#### 4. Search jobs

Send a GET request to https://api.worklittle.com. Any language with HTTPS can do the same. Schema: OpenAPI.

curl -s "https://api.worklittle.com/jobs?q=software+engineer&limit=5" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WORKLITTLE_API_KEY"

Output
