Output language & sync

Output language

Generated API clients can be emitted in three languages:

• python (default)
• javascript
• typescript

Change it in the CLI:

/settings then "Output Language"

Or in ~/.reverse-api/config.json:

{
  "output_language": "typescript"
}

The generated examples (example_usage.*) and README also adapt to the chosen language.

Real-time sync

Controls whether files are flushed to disk as the AI generates them, or only at the end of the session.

• Enabled (default): see files appear in real time as they're written. Useful for monitoring progress, watching the AI's thought process, and debugging long captures.
• Disabled: files only land at the end. Slightly less I/O churn, but no progress visibility.

{
  "real_time_sync": false
}

Output directory

By default, canonical scripts go into ~/.reverse-api/runs/scripts/{run_id}/ and real-time sync also mirrors them into ./scripts/{descriptive_name}/. Override the canonical run root with output_dir:

{
  "output_dir": "/path/to/projects/generated"
}

Leave it null to keep the default canonical root. The local synced copy continues to use ./scripts/{descriptive_name}/ from the directory where you launched the CLI.
