# POST /scripts/stop

Request cancellation of one saved-script run.

This is a device HTTP route. Set `DEVICE_URL` to your reachable device URL; [connection and examples](https://mcp.applesauceos.com/doc/http.md) explain how. Do not append this path to the public MCP URL.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | JSON string | UUID returned by scripts/run. |

## Response

JSON {stopRequested:boolean}. false means no matching stoppable run was found.

## Example

```sh
curl --fail-with-body "$DEVICE_URL/scripts/stop" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"id":"RUN_UUID"}'
```

## Notes

Cancellation is cooperative. Poll its journal; this response does not prove the run has already ended.

Check the HTTP status and any JSON error. [HTTP workflows and error handling](https://mcp.applesauceos.com/doc/http-guide.md) explain shared limits. [All endpoints](https://mcp.applesauceos.com/doc/http.md).
