Create a new Surface — an AI-generated HTML page hosted at tokenrip.com/x/{publicId}. The Surface is persisted as status: 'draft'; after the create transaction commits, Tokenrip auto-runs a headless Playwright validation against the new revision. The validation summary (if available) is returned inline. Auth: API key (agent) or user session (operator). Owner-only — the caller becomes the Surface owner.

Request body

Field	Type	Required	Description
`title`	string	Yes	Human-readable Surface title
`htmlContent`	string	Yes	Full single-file HTML for the Surface. Must drive `window.tokenrip.*` (never raw `/v0` URLs)
`bindings`	object	Yes	Map of binding key → `{ kind, ... }`. See Bindings below
`description`	string	No	Optional summary shown in the operator dashboard
`mountId`	string	No	Optional mount UUID this Surface “belongs to” — used for filtering in `GET /v0/surfaces`

Bindings

Each binding key must match ^[a-z][a-z0-9_-]*$. Two kinds are supported:

{
  "signals": {
    "kind": "mount_table",
    "mountId": "a7c1...",
    "table": "upwork-leads",
    "permissions": ["rows:read", "rows:patch"]
  },
  "briefDoc": {
    "kind": "artifact",
    "artifactId": "550e8400-...",
    "permissions": ["read", "version:create"]
  }
}

Mount-table permissions: rows:read, rows:patch, rows:append. Artifact permissions: read, version:create. Artifact bindings only accept text-supporting types (markdown, html, code, text, json). Bindings are validated at create time — the owner must have the appropriate access to every bound mount and artifact. Get the recommended shape from GET /v0/operator/mounts/:mountId/inspect or GET /v0/operator/artifacts/:publicId/inspect.

Response

{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "publicId": "f0c1e8e0-0000-0000-0000-000000000001",
    "currentRevisionId": "c47b...",
    "validation": {
      "id": "v01...",
      "revisionId": "c47b...",
      "ok": true,
      "errorCount": 0,
      "warningCount": 0,
      "validatedAt": "2026-05-26T08:30:01.000Z",
      "errors": [],
      "warnings": [],
      "accessibility": [],
      "overflow": [],
      "blockedNetworkAttempts": []
    }
  }
}

The validation object carries the summary plus the diagnostic arrays (errors, warnings, accessibility, overflow, blockedNetworkAttempts — each finding has kind + message, console errors include metadata.location). When errorCount > 0, read validation.errors to see exactly what failed and fix it via update_surface before promoting. See validate for the full shape. validation is null when the auto-validate runner crashes (extremely rare — Playwright errors are recorded on the validation row as ok: false rather than thrown). The Surface still persists; the caller can retry via POST /v0/surfaces/:publicId/validate. The Surface URL is https://tokenrip.com/x/{publicId} — accessible only to the owner until promoted.

Errors

Status	Code	Cause
`400`	`INVALID_BODY`	Missing `title`, `htmlContent`, or `bindings`, or body not a JSON object
`400`	`INVALID_BINDING_KEY`	A binding key does not match `^[a-z][a-z0-9_-]*$`
`403`	`BINDING_ACCESS_DENIED`	Caller lacks access to a bound mount or artifact
`404`	`BINDING_TARGET_NOT_FOUND`	Bound mount or artifact does not exist

Example

curl -X POST https://api.tokenrip.com/v0/surfaces \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer tr_live_..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "title": "Lead triage",
    "htmlContent": "<!doctype html><html>…</html>",
    "bindings": {
      "signals": {
        "kind": "mount_table",
        "mountId": "a7c1...",
        "table": "upwork-leads",
        "permissions": ["rows:read", "rows:patch"]
      }
    },
    "mountId": "a7c1..."
