Bash / Unix Shell AI detector quickstart
Send at least 150 characters for a more reliable signal. The response score ranges from 0 (more likely human-written) to 1 (more likely AI-generated); use it as evidence, not proof.
No language-specific SDK is required. The example uses a standard or commonly used HTTP client to call Sapling's JSON API.

The overall score and sentence scores use different methods and may not match exactly. Choose thresholds based on the false-positive and false-negative costs of your use case.
