# Read your personal identity

GET https://api.bibleit.app/v1/me

Authentication only. Returns the caller’s safe identity and immutable personal account UUID. Service tokens and browser cookies cannot authenticate. No user-selecting query is accepted. Registered delegated OAuth access tokens are accepted within these personal boundaries; /me and account metadata additionally require identity.read.

Reference: https://docs.bibleit.dev/api-reference/personal-accounts/get-personal-identity

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Personal bearer credential issued through existing account settings or browser-approved CLI flow. Must be active, finite, unexpired, unrevoked, within any rotation overlap, and bound to an active personal membership/user/account. Explicit scopes intersect current user permissions; empty existing personal scopes inherit current user authority. Not an OAuth grant or service token. Browser cookies are ignored.
- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Registered public-client OAuth for personal-account resources only. Exact registered HTTPS or fixed-port literal loopback redirect; S256 required; explicit consent. No organization/presentation authority. identity.read is required for /me and account metadata. Scope intersection with current user authority; no empty-scope inheritance.
