Installation

Installation

HydraSkill provides official SDKs for Python, Node.js, and Go. Choose your language:

Python

pip install hydraskill

Requires Python 3.8+. Compatible with requests, httpx, aiohttp, and playwright.

Node.js

npm install hydraskill

Requires Node.js 18+. Works with axios, fetch, puppeteer, and playwright.

Go

go get github.com/hydraskill/go-sdk

Requires Go 1.21+.

CLI (Optional)

For quick testing and debugging:

npx hydraskill init

This creates a .hydraskill.yml config file and validates your API key.

Get Your API Key

1. Create an account (free tier available)
2. Go to Dashboard → API Keys
3. Click Create Key
4. Copy the key — it’s shown only once

export HYDRASKILL_API_KEY="sk-your-key-here"

Verify Installation

from hydraskill import ProxyClient

client = ProxyClient()  # reads HYDRASKILL_API_KEY from env
status = client.health_check()
print(status)  # {'status': 'ok', 'latency_ms': 45}
