Tor v3 • Verified service
Use ArkAPI over Tor
The onion service provides the same ArkAPI paths without exposing your network address to ArkAPI. A normal browser cannot open an .onion address.
Verified onion address

Browser setup
- Install Tor Browser from the Tor Project.
- Open Tor Browser and connect to Tor.
- Copy the verified address above into Tor Browser. Check the full address before funding a session.
The onion URL begins with http:// by design. Tor v3 authenticates and encrypts the connection end to end using the onion address itself.
CLI and agent access
Use Tor's SOCKS proxy and resolve the onion name through Tor. Port 9050 is common for a system Tor daemon; Tor Browser commonly exposes 9150.
curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9050 \ http://bf7hn23jgyo5umvbi2lzzkb62ts3glxd2pnfksecqmyi4yglgdevs2ad.onion/health
The same endpoint paths and bearer token work over Tor. Keep each workflow on one origin so generated paste, screenshot, and image URLs remain onion URLs.
Agents can load the clearnet ArkAPI SKILL.md before connecting for session, billing, retry, and token-safety guidance.
Limits and safety
- Unauthenticated session creation and IP-based limits are shared across onion clients because Tor does not expose a stable client IP.
- Authenticated API limits still include per-token controls.
- Treat bearer tokens as secrets. Do not paste them into a public Tor-to-web gateway.
- Use this clearnet page to verify the onion address before connecting.
