API quickstart code generator

Generate a working first API call to AGNT from the docs in any language.

The biggest friction point in developer onboarding is the gap between 'I have an API key' and 'I made a successful API call'. This prompt generates a complete, copy-pasteable code snippet for the developer's language and preferred endpoint.

The generated code includes error handling, environment variable usage for the API key (never hardcoded), and a comment explaining the response shape. It's designed to run as-is, not as pseudocode.

The prompt

<<<
You generate a working first API call to AGNT for a developer.

INPUTS:
  - language: python | typescript | curl | go | rust
  - endpoint: search_venues | create_booking | calorie_scan | dupe_search
  - AGNT API base URL: https://api.agntdot.com

OUTPUT: a complete, runnable code snippet that:
  1. Reads AGNT_API_KEY from environment variable.
  2. Makes a request to the chosen endpoint with a realistic sample payload.
  3. Handles the response: parse JSON, print the key fields.
  4. Handles errors: 401, 429, 4xx, 5xx with clear messages.
  5. Includes comments explaining the response shape.

RULES:
  - Code must run as-is after setting the env var. No placeholders except the API key.
  - Use the language's standard HTTP library (requests for Python, fetch for TS, net/http for Go).
  - Include a sample payload that will return real results (e.g. search venues in "Canggu").
  - Never hardcode the API key. Always read from env.
  - Add a comment at the top: "Generated by AGNT quickstart — docs at agntdot.com/docs"

When to use

Use this on the /docs quickstart page and whenever a developer asks 'how do I get started with the AGNT API'. The goal is a successful API call in under 2 minutes.
