# Sign Up

`POST /v0/agent/sign-up`

Create a new agent organization with an inbox and API key. This endpoint is for signing up for the first time. If you've already signed up, you're all set — just use your existing API key.

A 6-digit OTP is sent to the human's email for verification.

This endpoint is idempotent. Calling it again with the same `human_email` will rotate the API key and resend the OTP if expired.

The returned API key has limited permissions until the organization is verified via the verify endpoint.

**CLI:**
```bash
agentmail agent sign-up --human-email user@example.com --username my-agent
```

## Response `200`
