You can definitely use the API outside of the standard command-line  
context, if you wish to do so. Right now we're sadly lacking on docs,  
but the good news is that the client API is quite simple, so I'd say  
looking at the gem source would be a great start. If you're familiar  
with rSpec it actually has very decent specs too. As you can see we  
have a small set of operations supported right now, but we're  
definitely planning on building out the API more in the future. If  
there's anything in particular you'd like it to do, let us know.

Best,

/Morten
