# Adaptyv Bio Foundry API

Adaptyv Bio is a cloud lab that turns protein sequences into experimental data. Users submit amino acid sequences via API or UI; Adaptyv's automated lab runs assays (binding, thermostability, expression, fluorescence) and delivers results in ~21 days.

## Quick Start

**Base URL:** `https://foundry-api-public.adaptyvbio.com/api/v1`

**Authentication:** Bearer token in the `Authorization` header. Tokens are obtained from [foundry.adaptyvbio.com](https://foundry.adaptyvbio.com/) sidebar.

When writing code, always read the API key from the environment variable `ADAPTYV_API_KEY` or from a `.env` file — never hardcode tokens. Check for a `.env` file in the project root first; if one exists, use a library like `python-dotenv` to load it.

```bash
export FOUNDRY_API_TOKEN="abs0_..."
curl https://foundry-api-public.adaptyvbio.com/api/v1/targets?limit=3 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUNDRY_API_TOKEN"
```

Every request except `GET /openapi.json` requires authentication. Store tokens in environment variables or `.env` files — never commit them to source control.

## Python SDK

Install: `uv add adaptyv-sdk` (falls back to `uv pip install adaptyv-sdk` if no `pyproject.toml` exists)

**Environment variables** (set in shell or `.env` file):
```bash
ADAPTYV_API_KEY=your_api_key
ADAPTYV_API_URL=https://foundry-api-public.adaptyvbio.com/api/v1
```

### Decorator Pattern

```python
from adaptyv import lab

@lab.experiment(target="PD-L1", experiment_type="screening", method="bli")
def design_binders():
    return {"design_a": "MVKVGVNG...", "design_b": "MKVLVAG..."}

result = design_binders()
print(f"Experiment: {result.experiment_url}")
```

### Client Pattern

```python
from adaptyv import FoundryClient

client = FoundryClient(api_key="...", base_url="https://foundry-api-public.adaptyvbio.com/api/v1")

# Browse targets
targets = client.targets.list(search="EGFR", selfservice_only=True)

# Estimate cost
estimate = client.experiments.cost_estimate({
    "experiment_spec": {
        "experiment_type": "screening",
        "method": "bli",
        "target_id": "target-uuid",
        "sequences": {"seq1": "EVQLVESGGGLVQ..."},
        "n_replicates": 3
    }
})

# Create and submit
exp = client.experiments.create({...})
client.experiments.submit(exp.experiment_id)

# Later: retrieve results
results = client.experiments.get_results(exp.experiment_id)
```

## Experiment Types

| Type | Method | Measures | Requires Target |
|---|---|---|---|
| `affinity` | `bli` or `spr` | KD, kon, koff kinetics | Yes |
| `screening` | `bli` or `spr` | Yes/no binding | Yes |
| `thermostability` | — | Melting temperature (Tm) | No |
| `expression` | — | Expression yield | No |
| `fluorescence` | — | Fluorescence intensity | No |

## Experiment Lifecycle

```
Draft → WaitingForConfirmation → QuoteSent → WaitingForMaterials → InQueue → InProduction → DataAnalysis → InReview → Done
```

| Status | Who Acts | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `Draft` | You | Editable, no cost commitment |
| `WaitingForConfirmation` | Adaptyv | Under review, quote being prepared |
| `QuoteSent` | You | Review and confirm the quote |
| `WaitingForMaterials` | Adaptyv | Gene fragments and target ordered |
| `InQueue` | Adaptyv | Materials arrived, queued for lab |
| `InProduction` | Adaptyv | Assay running |
| `DataAnalysis` | Adaptyv | Raw data processing and QC |
| `InReview` | Adaptyv | Final validation |
| `Done` | You | Results available |
| `Canceled` | Either | Experiment canceled |

The `results_status` field on an experiment tracks: `none`, `partial`, or `all`.

## Common Workflows

### 1. Submit a Binding Screen (Step by Step)

```python
# 1. Find a target
targets = client.targets.list(search="EGFR", selfservice_only=True)
target_id = targets.items[0].id

# 2. Preview cost
estimate = client.experiments.cost_estimate({
    "experiment_spec": {
        "experiment_type": "screening",
        "method": "bli",
        "target_id": target_id,
        "sequences": {"seq1": "EVQLVESGGGLVQ...", "seq2": "MKVLVAG..."},
