## Overview

The Hamlet Public API gives you programmatic access to civic intelligence data: published government meetings, their agendas and transcripts, and the locations and government bodies they belong to. It is a versioned REST API. Every consumer-facing endpoint lives under `/v1`, requests are authenticated with a Bearer API key, and list endpoints are cursor-paginated with support for incremental sync.

- **Base URL:** `https://api.myhamlet.com`
- **Authentication:** `Authorization: Bearer <your-api-key>`
- **Versioning:** breaking changes ship under a new version prefix, never as a changed response shape.

The guides in this site walk through authentication, pagination, and the error model; the **API Reference** documents every endpoint with request and response schemas.
