REST

post/api/v1/categories
curl "https://herculeradar.com/api/v1/categories" \
  --request POST \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer hr_live_…" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --header "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  --data '{"category":"testimonial"}'

MCP

Tool name create_category. It takes the same input and returns the same { data, meta } envelope as REST, because both call the same function.

Categories are a closed set. Use this to enable and label one of the five enums.

Request body

{
  "type": "object",
  "required": [
    "category"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "category": {
      "type": "string",
      "enum": [
        "testimonial",
        "bug_report",
        "product_idea",
        "complaint",
        "other",
        "misinformation"
      ]
    },
    "label": {
      "type": "string"
    }
  }
}

Response

{
  "data": {
    "category": "complaint",
    "enabled": true
  },
  "meta": {
    "capability": "create_category",
    "requestId": "req_9f2b4a8c1d0e",
    "idempotencyReplayed": false,
    "docs": "https://herculeradar.com/docs/reference/create_category"
  }
}

Authorization

Requires the mentions:write scope. A credential without it gets 403 FORBIDDEN. Resources in projects the credential cannot reach answer 404 NOT_FOUND rather than 403, so ids cannot be probed across tenants.

Send an Idempotency-Key header. A completed response is replayed for 24 hours, so a retry after a timeout cannot create a duplicate.
