# Mint a public badge token for your tenant

POST https://api.withwrit.com/v1/badge/tokens
Content-Type: application/json

API key required. Mints a badge token (`writ_badge_...`) for the
caller's tenant and returns the badge image URL plus a ready-to-paste
Markdown snippet. Embed the snippet in your README: the badge renders
a live count of your tenant's gated writes over the trailing 30 days,
straight from your audit log.

The token is public by design — it lives in your README image URL —
and grants nothing: it cannot be used as an API key (see the 401
below). It maps to your tenant server-side, so the badge image never
leaks tenant IDs, keys, or receipt contents. The token is shown
exactly once; store it — you need it to revoke the badge. Optional
`label` (max 40 chars, `[A-Za-z0-9 _.-]`) is stored for your own
bookkeeping and never rendered.
