File contents

Pavlok Stimulus

Use scripts/pavlok.py to send a stimulus to the Pavlok API.

Run

uv run scripts/pavlok.py zap 30 "reason for trigger"

Inputs

stimulusType is a string such as vibe, beep, or zap.
stimulusValue is an integer.
reason is required by the CLI parser but is not currently sent to the API.

Notes

Requires PAVLOK_API_KEY in .env or the environment.
For zap, LIMIT_DAY_PAVLOK_COUNTS and LIMIT_PAVLOK_ZAP_VALUE are required. If the daily zap limit is exceeded, the script returns a JSON object with skipped: true and reason: "limit_reached". If the value is above the limit, it is clamped to LIMIT_PAVLOK_ZAP_VALUE.
