  description: >-
    Run any iotools.cloud tool over HTTP.


    Authenticate with `Authorization: Bearer iot_live_…`.


    **Only `POST /v1/tool/{slug}` costs credits.** Every GET here — the catalog,
    a tool's schema, your balance — is free. A tool call is charged its own
    weight or your plan's per-call minimum, whichever is larger;
    `x-iotools-credit-cost` on each operation is quoted at the free-tier
    minimum, and `GET /v1/tools/list` returns the exact figure for your key.
    `GET /v1/me/credits` reports what you have left, and `GET /v1/me/usage`
    reports what it went on.


    Failures are RFC 9457 problem documents — branch on `code`.
