# You asked for an API. We finally built one.

## Summary

daily.dev has launched a Public API v1 for Plus subscribers, enabling programmatic access to personalized feeds, bookmarks, notifications, and profile management. The API includes built-in integrations for AI coding assistants like Claude Code and Cursor, allowing developers to pull real-time content into their workflow, auto-generate feeds from GitHub repos, and research technologies without leaving their development environment. Access requires creating a personal access token through the settings.

## Content

For years, developers have asked us: "Can I access my daily.dev feed programmatically?" We always said "not yet." Today, that changes.

**Introducing the daily.dev Public API v1**, available exclusively for [Plus subscribers](https://app.daily.dev/plus).

## Here's what you can do

- **Access your personalized feed** - Pull your "For You" feed into any app, script, or AI agent
- **Search and discover** - Find posts by keywords, explore content sources
- **Manage bookmarks** - List saved posts, organize folders programmatically
- **Create custom feeds** - Build filtered feeds with engagement thresholds
- **Read notifications** - Check your unread count and notification history
- **Update your profile** - Manage your bio, tech stack, and more via code

And much more, see our [OpenAPI spec](https://api.daily.dev/public/v1/docs/json).

## Built for AI agents

We didn't just build an API. We built it for how developers actually work today.

Supercharge your workflow with out-of-the-box integrations for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OpenClaw. Your AI assistant can now tap into real-time developer content, overcome knowledge cutoffs, and keep you informed without leaving your coding environment.

**What becomes possible:**
- Auto-generate feeds based on your GitHub repos
- Build your profile from your actual tech stack
- Get weekly briefings synthesized from trending content
- Research new technologies with curated reading lists

## How to get started

1. Head to [Settings → API Access](https://app.daily.dev/settings/api)
2. Create a personal access token
3. Use it with `Authorization: Bearer <your-token>`
4. Start building

## One more thing

This is v1. We're already thinking about what comes next.
