  title: Ornn compute API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Customer HTTP API for Ornn GPU capacity. It covers reserved capacity and
    nodes, VM and Bare Metal access, Kubernetes and Slurm clusters, SSH keys,
    storage volumes and GitHub repositories, private networks, monitoring,
    buying and selling capacity (Reserve, Market, Spot, and Relist), and
    billing. API keys are scoped to one organization and act with their
    creator's access there; account, team, and API-key management stay in the
    console. Most operations require an approved organization. See
    https://docs.ornn.com/api-keys to create a key and
    https://docs.ornn.com/guides/kubernetes-api for an end-to-end Kubernetes
    integration. Examples use fictional IDs and credentials. The info.version
    field identifies the contract revision, not a shared API path version.

      Choose a VM disk, launch VM access on a reservation, and read each VM's
      status, launch progress, and SSH connection details.
  - name: Bare Metal
    description: >-
      Launch Bare Metal access on a reservation, read a host's readiness and SSH
      connection details, and reboot or hard reset it.
  - name: SSH keys
    description: >-
      Register public keys for your organization, choose which keys a VM or Bare
      Metal reservation uses, and queue key delivery to machines. Slurm clusters
      take organization key IDs at launch. Kubernetes API access does not use
      SSH keys.
  - name: Reserve
    description: >-
      Browse reserved-capacity listings and their terms, and post, cancel, or
      accept offers. Reserve listings are visible to approved organizations.
  - name: Market
    description: >-
      Browse relisted capacity and buy windows at the asking price, paid up
      front. Open to every member of your organization.
  - name: Spot
    description: >-
      Hourly order books for VMs with 1, 2, 4, or 8 GPUs on one node: read
      books, trades, and quotes, place and cancel bids, and follow fills.
  - name: Relist
    description: >-
      Sell whole nodes from a reservation you hold at your asking price, and
      manage those listings.
  - name: Storage
    description: >-
      Managed volumes, their files, and GitHub repository pulls. Volumes belong
      to the API key's creator in the key's organization.
  - name: Networks
    description: >-
      Organization private networks and the WireGuard configs you use to reach
      private machines and clusters.
  - name: Monitoring
    description: >-
      Machine telemetry and console logs for capacity your organization holds.
      Reads are limited to your reservation window.
  - name: Billing
    description: >-
      Invoices, billing summary, usage cost, Ornn credits, and account
      statements. Saving a card and paying invoices stay in the console.
