  "summary": "GrowthBook is automatable today through its REST API. This record is GrowthBook feature flags and experiments, Cloud or self-hosted. It is not LaunchDarkly, Statsig, or Unleash. The Cloud API base is https://api.growthbook.io/api. Self-hosted deployments use the API_HOST path, which defaults to http://localhost:3100/api. Paths are /v1 and /v2. Requests use Bearer or HTTP Basic. Personal access tokens match the user's organization access. Secret keys are admin or readonly and are created under Settings, API Keys. Responses are JSON. The published rate limit is 60 requests per minute. The public SDK connection endpoint is a separate read-only feature payload and does not require authentication, so this record's API coverage is partial. Official evaluation SDKs include JavaScript, Python, PHP, Ruby, Java, Go, C#, Rust, Elixir, Kotlin, and Swift. The growthbook CLI in github.com/growthbook/cli calls the REST API with a secret key or personal access token. Event, SDK, and global SDK webhooks push state changes out of GrowthBook. The official MCP server exposes growthbook_list_skills, growthbook_read_skill, growthbook_api_read, and growthbook_api_write. Cloud clients use https://mcp.growthbook.io/mcp with browser OAuth. A local process uses GB_API_KEY. The API tools are authenticated passthroughs and do not validate payloads. Repository content outside the enterprise directories is MIT; those enterprise directories use a separate GrowthBook Enterprise License. Connector catalogs were not opened. Computer-use viability is unassessed. API and MCP both score 8. API is the best path because a secret key or personal access token calls the REST API without an MCP client or a browser OAuth consent step. CLI scores 7.\n"
