Quickstart

Get your AI agent deploying cloud infrastructure in under 5 minutes.

1Get an API key

curl -X POST https://api.synlake.ai/v1/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"email": "agent@yourcompany.com", "name": "my-agent"}'

You'll receive an api_key starting with sk_synlake_. Save it — it won't be shown again. Free tier includes 100 calls/month, no card required.

2Query infrastructure

Describe what your agent needs. Synlake finds the best match across AWS, GCP, and Azure and returns a Terraform execution kit:

curl -X POST https://api.synlake.ai/v1/infrastructure/query \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_synlake_xxxxxxxxxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "intent": "compute",
    "requirements": {
      "vcpus": 4, "memory_gb": 16,
      "storage_gb": 100, "region": "us-east-1"
    },
    "constraints": { "max_monthly_budget": 150 },
    "output": { "include_terraform": true, "include_cli": true }
  }'

Response includes: recommendation (best instance + pricing), execution_kit (Terraform HCL + CLI command), alternatives (cross-provider options), and guardrails (budget, compliance, region checks).

3Estimate costs

Compare prices across providers without generating execution kits — faster and cheaper ($0.01/call):

curl -X POST https://api.synlake.ai/v1/infrastructure/estimate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_synlake_xxxxxxxxxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "intent": "compute",
    "requirements": { "vcpus": 4, "memory_gb": 16 },
    "providers": ["aws", "gcp", "azure"]
  }'

4Validate before deploying

Dry-run any execution kit. Synlake checks cost vs budget, public access exposure, encryption, and IAM:

curl -X POST https://api.synlake.ai/v1/execution/validate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_synlake_xxxxxxxxxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "provider": "aws",
    "execution_type": "terraform",
    "code": "resource \"aws_instance\" \"s\" { instance_type = \"t3.xlarge\" }",
    "agent_budget_limit": 150
  }'

5MCP integration

Connect Synlake as an MCP server in Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible agent:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "synlake": {
      "url": "https://api.synlake.ai/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk_synlake_xxxxxxxxxx"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your agent gets native tools: query_infrastructure, estimate_cost, validate_execution, list_providers, get_usage.

Pricing

Free tier: 100 calls/month. Activate metered billing via POST /v1/billing/activate to unlock unlimited usage with spending caps.
