    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {SKILLBOSS_API_KEY}",
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    },
    json={

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

Check that the SKILLBOSS_API_KEY environment variable is set:

bash

echo $SKILLBOSS_API_KEY

Verify the API key is valid by making a test request:

bash

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.skillboss.com/v1/run')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["SKILLBOSS_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
import urllib.parse
data = json.dumps({'discover': True}).encode()
req.data = data
req.method = 'POST'
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF
