Warden Service

Query Warden Service with a read-only personal token and return a bounded, evidence-based answer.

Workflow

Identify the Warden Service origin and confirm WARDEN_PAT is set without displaying its value.
If the token is missing, direct the user to API access in the Warden Service dashboard. Have them create a personal token and export it as WARDEN_PAT; never ask them to paste it into chat or a command literal.
Read references/read-api.md to select the exact route, supported filters, pagination behavior, and response fields for the question.
Narrow the request to the user's repository, time range, skill, severity, or other stated scope. Use a bounded limit for runs and findings.
Send a GET request with the token read from the environment. URL-encode every query value.
Follow nextCursor only while more results are needed. Preserve all original filters and stop when the requested scope is satisfied or the response omits nextCursor.
Summarize the relevant JSON fields. State the route and filters used, and distinguish an empty result from a failed request.

Request Pattern

Use --get with --data-urlencode instead of assembling a query string manually:

curl --fail-with-body --silent --show-error --get \
  -H 'Accept: application/json' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${WARDEN_PAT}" \
  --data-urlencode 'severity=high' \
  --data-urlencode 'skill=security-review' \
  --data-urlencode 'limit=30' \
  "${WARDEN_SERVICE_URL%/}/api/v1/findings"

Keep the token in WARDEN_PAT. Do not enable verbose or trace output that could expose the authorization header.

Pagination

Only /api/v1/runs and /api/v1/findings use cursor pagination. Treat nextCursor as opaque and pass it back unchanged through URL encoding:

curl --fail-with-body --silent --show-error --get \
  -H 'Accept: application/json' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${WARDEN_PAT}" \
  --data-urlencode "cursor=${NEXT_CURSOR}" \
  --data-urlencode 'severity=high' \
  --data-urlencode 'limit=100' \
  "${WARDEN_SERVICE_URL%/}/api/v1/findings"

Errors

Use the HTTP status and the JSON error.code and error.message together:

Status	Meaning	Action
400	Invalid query filters	Correct the parameter names, values, or RFC 3339 timestamps.
401	Missing, invalid, or expired authentication	Verify the origin and replace the personal token through API access.
403	Insufficient role or disallowed personal-token operation	Keep the request read-only and within the token's repository scope.
404	Unknown or unauthorized route/resource	Verify the documented route or ID without assuming the resource exists.
429	Rate limited	Wait and retry later; do not create a tight retry loop.

Boundaries

Use personal tokens only for GET or HEAD. Never attempt POST, PUT, PATCH, or DELETE with them.
Never reveal, log, persist, embed as a command literal, or ask the user to paste a token.
Respect the token's tenant, role, and repository restrictions. Never attempt to bypass them.
Use only routes, filters, and response fields documented in references/read-api.md.
Fetch and display only the data required for the user's stated scope. Use the export route only when the user explicitly requests an export.
If the read API cannot answer the question, say so. Do not substitute an ingest, memory-recall, token-management, retention, or deletion request.
