# get\_feature

Read one feature in full, including its Gherkin source.

## Request

```
GET /api/v1/ops/projects/{project}/features/{feature}
```

| Parameter | In   | Type   | Required | Description              |
| --------- | ---- | ------ | -------- | ------------------------ |
| `project` | path | string | yes      | The project's public id. |
| `feature` | path | string | yes      | Feature id or name.      |

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="cURL" %}

```bash
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TESTVIBE_API_KEY" \
  "$TESTVIBE_SERVER/api/v1/ops/projects/$PROJECT/features/12"
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="CLI" %}

```bash
testvibe features show "Login Functionality"
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="MCP" %}
Tool **`get_feature`** — `{ "feature": "Login Functionality" }`.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Response

```json
{
  "id": 12,
  "name": "Login Functionality",
  "kind": "feature",
  "status": "generated",
  "gherkin": "Feature: Login Functionality\n  Scenario: Valid user signs in\n    Given I am on the login page\n    When I sign in with valid credentials\n    Then I see the inventory page\n",
  "rationale": null,
  "updatedUtc": "2026-06-10T14:32:07Z"
}
```

`rationale` is set on `suggestion` features — the exploration agent's reasoning for proposing them.
