Get Origin Tag via the API

Return an annotated Git tag object by SHA with GET https://api.cursor.com/v1/origin/repos/{ownerSlug}/{repoName}/git/tags/{sha}. Official reference: Origin API (OpenAPI OriginService_GetTag).

Origin is in Early Beta and subject to change. Authenticate with an installation access token (oit_…) or a user access token that carries repository:contents:read. Availability: Early Beta per the API overview.

Path sha must be the full or abbreviated hex SHA of an annotated tag object. Lightweight tags are not tag objects and return 404. Empty repositories return 409 Conflict. Not-found and no-access are deliberately indistinguishable.

Cost: 1 point against the principal budget (ordinary read).

Path parameters
