openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Rockbox HTTP API
  version: 1.0.0
  summary: >-
    HTTP REST API for rockboxd — playback, library, playlists, devices,
    settings.
  description: >-
    Rockbox Daemon exposes its full feature surface over HTTP REST on port 6063
    (configurable via `ROCKBOX_TCP_PORT`). It complements the GraphQL API on
    :6062 and the gRPC API on :6061 — all three speak to the same in-process
    state.


    All handlers are defined in `crates/server/src/handlers/` and registered in
    `crates/server/src/lib.rs:run_http_server()`.
