3. Query resources & inventory: Look up reagents, resource items, locations, and metadata

Authentication

Authenticate using the LABSTEP_API_KEY env var, or fall back to .claude/settings.json:

import os, json, labstep
from pathlib import Path

def () -> :
    
    key = os.environ.get()
     key:
         key
    settings = Path()
     settings.exists():
        cfg = json.loads(settings.read_text())
        key = cfg.get(, {}).get(, {}).get()
         key:
             key
     RuntimeError()

user = labstep.authenticate(apikey=get_labstep_apikey())
