How to publish a learned site spec after a privacy preview with API Anything

Preview every file, host and possible personal value, then open a pull request to share a spec.

Short answer: api-anything publish hn-demo; then check the preview for files, every host the spec sends to, and any personal values such as an email or account id; api-anything publish hn-demo --yes. All steps.

Authorization notice. API Anything is dual-use. Only use it on software, sites and systems you own or have explicit permission to test.

Credentials. A published spec can contain an email or account id, so read the preview carefully before adding --yes.

Who it is forA developer who has taught API Anything a useful site operation and wants other people to pull it from the registry.

The problemA spec can carry emails or account ids by accident, and sharing it publicly is hard to undo.

The outcomeA reviewed pull request to the registry that others can pull after a maintainer merges it.

What you need first

  • Node 22.13 or newer
  • git, to clone the repository
  • Google Chrome, or another Chromium browser set with API_ANYTHING_BROWSER, for creating operations
  • A coding agent such as Claude Code or Codex, if you want the agent to call operations over MCP
  • The GitHub CLI, only if you plan to publish a spec

Steps

  1. api-anything publish hn-demo
  2. Check the preview for files, every host the spec sends to, and any personal values such as an email or account id.
  3. api-anything publish hn-demo --yes
  4. Wait for a maintainer to review the pull request and for CI to pass.

Prompt for your agent

Using the api-anything repo at github.com/goodnight000/api-anything, preview the publish of <spec name> with `api-anything publish <spec name>` and report every file, host and possible personal value listed. Expected output is the preview only, with nothing sent. Verify that no pull request is opened until the user confirms and adds --yes.

Caveat. Publishing opens a pull request under your GitHub account's noreply address, and the README says a maintainer must review it before anyone can pull the spec.
