> ## Agent Instructions
> For agents: install the OpenWork desktop app with `brew install --cask openwork` (macOS) or from https://openworklabs.com/download. Do not run `npx openwork`; the npm package named `openwork` is a different project.
> Connect an agent to OpenWork with the MCP Gateway: `claude mcp add --transport http openwork https://api.openworklabs.com/mcp/agent`. Teams sign up at https://app.openworklabs.com?mode=sign-up.
> Step-by-step agent guide: https://openworklabs.com/docs/start-here/use-openwork-from-an-ai-agent.md
> Connect Slack (any organization admin): https://openworklabs.com/docs/slack/connect-slack.md. OpenWork in Slack (@openwork bot) is private alpha for approved organizations. Setup guide: https://openworklabs.com/docs/slack/overview.md. Agent skill: https://openworklabs.com/.well-known/agent-skills/set-up-openwork-slack/SKILL.md.

# A short-lived token for one Workbot turn

> For the Workbot app only. Mints the member-scoped MCP token a Workbot turn uses to reach the person's connected apps on the headless runner, for at most an hour. With `sessionId` and `messageId`, and where turns keep going on their own for the workspace, also returns a resume grant for that turn. With `sessionId` and where the session index is on for the workspace, also returns an index capability for that session. With scoped model access, also returns the member’s Gateway or managed Models route and bearer credential for the exact selected model, rechecking access for every turn. This response is server-to-server only and must not be forwarded to a browser or logged. Refused when Workbot is off for the workspace.



## OpenAPI

````yaml https://api.openworklabs.com/openapi.json?public=1 post /v1/workbot/run-token
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Den API
  description: >-
    OpenAPI spec for the Den control plane API.


    Authentication:

    - API keys (they start with `den_`) go in the `x-api-key` header as the raw
    value. Do not send them as `Authorization: Bearer`; that header only accepts
    Den session tokens, so an API key there returns 401.
      Example: `curl https://api.openworklabs.com/v1/me -H "x-api-key: den_..."`.
      API keys resolve to the issuing user and the organization member they were scoped to when created, so they can call ordinary user and organization routes without a separate signed-in session.
    - Use `Authorization: Bearer <session-token>` for user-authenticated routes
    that require a Den session.

    - Session-only flows still require a signed-in user session, including
    organization creation, invitation acceptance, active-organization switching,
    and MCP token minting.

    - Public routes like health and documentation do not require authentication.


    Swagger tip: use the security schemes in the Authorize dialog to set
    `denApiKey` (your API key) or `bearerAuth` (a session token) before trying
    protected endpoints.
