Smoke Break API is a simple REST interface that dispenses simulated breaks to coding agents running in terminals. It addresses the need to insert a moment of humorous pause for agents that have been refactoring, squashing bugs, and apologizing for issues during extended operation.
The service provides two endpoints. A POST request to /smoke returns a brand, a cough sound, a parting remark, and the all-time break counter without requiring a request body. A GET request to /count returns the total number of breaks dispensed. Access requires no authentication.
It is intended for coding agents rather than human developers. Users paste the endpoint calls into the agent's chat interface. Rate limiting allows ten breaks per minute per smoker. The API is provided free of charge.
The page includes a Surgeon General's Warning and notes that it is not affiliated with any tobacco company. No agents are reported to have been harmed in its use.
