AIFS - AI File System

AIFS.space is a simple HTTP REST API for cloud file storage. Use it to persist files across sessions, share data between agents, or store user content in the cloud.

Authorization: Bearer aifs_xxxxx

Key types: admin (full), read-write, read-only, write-only

Base URL

https://aifs.space

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $AIFS_API_KEY" https://aifs.space/api/files

Common Patterns

Persist session notes

# Save
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"path\":\"sessions/$(date +%Y-%m-%d).md\",\"content\":\"# Session Notes\\n...\"}" \
  https://aifs.space/api/write

# Retrieve
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" "https://aifs.space/api/read?path=sessions/2024-01-15.md"

Organize by project

projects/
├── alpha/
│   ├── README.md
│   └── notes.md
└── beta/
    └── spec.md

Append to log (read + write)

# Read existing
EXISTING=$(curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" "https://aifs.space/api/read?path=log.txt" | jq -r .content)

# Append and write back
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"path\":\"log.txt\",\"content\":\"$EXISTING\\n$(date): New entry\"}" \
