# Manage applications and members

## Prerequisites

Use an interactive session or personal access token. Invitation preview and acceptance remain session-only.

1. **Create an application**

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.agent.mq/v1/applications \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AGENTMQ_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name":"Research assistant"}'
```
2. **Set per-application limits**

```bash
curl -X PUT https://api.agent.mq/v1/applications/app_<32-lowercase-hex>/limits \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AGENTMQ_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"dailyProviderRequests":1000,"providerRequestsPerMinute":30,"activeServiceInvocations":5}'
```
3. **Invite a member**

   An owner issues a single-use invitation for `DEVELOPER` or `VIEWER`. The invitation secret is returned once. The recipient signs in, previews it, then accepts it.

## Verify

`GET /v1/applications/{appId}` returns the application without credential values. Owners can list members and pending invitation metadata.
