Quick start

from mecanik_api import MecanikClient

mecanik = MecanikClient(account_id="YOUR_ACCOUNT_UUID", token="YOUR_API_TOKEN")

# Each tool returns just the `result`, and raises MecanikError on failure.
headers = mecanik.tools.security_headers(url="https://example.com")
print(headers["grade"], headers["score"])

tokens = mecanik.tools.token_counter(text="Hello world", models=["gpt-4o", "claude-sonnet-4-6"])
audit = mecanik.tools.website_audit(url="https://example.com")
balance = mecanik.credits()  # {"credits": ...}

Error handling

from mecanik_api import MecanikError

try:
    mecanik.tools.dns_lookup(domain="example.com")
except MecanikError as err:
    print(err.status, str(err), err.errors)
    # status 402 -> out of credits; 403 -> bad token; 429 -> rate limited

Lower-level access

# Full envelope {"result", "success", "errors"}
res = mecanik.raw("/tools/dns-lookup", {"domain": "example.com"})

# Any endpoint by path
result = mecanik.call("/tools/hash-generate", {"input": "hello", "algorithm": "sha256"})
