   # @kubb/plugin-client
 
-  Generate API client code for handling API requests.
+  Generate HTTP client functions for every operation in your OpenAPI spec. Each generated function has typed path params, query params, body, and response — call the API like any other typed function.
 
-  By default, this plugin uses [Axios](https://axios-http.com/docs/intro), but you can add your own client. See [Use of Fetch](https://kubb.dev/plugins/plugin-client#importpath) for an example.
+  Ships with `axios` and `fetch` runtimes out of the box. Bring your own client (auth, retries, custom base URL) by pointing `importPath` at your module.

+        description: |
+          Folder (or single file) where the plugin writes its generated code. The path is resolved against the global `output.path` set on `defineConfig`.
+
+          Use a folder to keep each generator's output isolated (`'types'`, `'clients'`, `'hooks'`). Use a single file when you want everything in one place, for example `'api.ts'`.
         tip: |
-          if `output.path` is a file, `group` cannot be used.
+          When `output.path` points to a single file, the `group` option cannot be used because every operation ends up in the same file.

+        description: |
+          Controls how the generated `index.ts` (barrel) file re-exports the plugin's output.
+
+          - `{ type: 'named' }` re-exports each symbol by name. Best for tree-shaking and explicit imports.
+          - `{ type: 'all' }` uses `export *`. Smaller barrel file, but exports everything.
+          - `{ nested: true }` creates a barrel in every subdirectory, so callers can import from any depth.
+          - `false` skips the barrel entirely. The plugin's files are also excluded from the root `index.ts`.
+        tip: |
+          Pick `'named'` when consumers care about which symbols they import (better tree-shaking, friendlier auto-import). Pick `'all'` when the file count is small and you want a one-line barrel.

+
+      Without `group`, every file lands in the plugin's `output.path` folder. With `group`, files are bucketed under `{output.path}/{groupName}/`, where `groupName` is derived from the operation's first tag.
+    tip: |
+      Use `group` to mirror your API's domain structure (pet, store, user) in the generated code. Combine it with `output.barrel: { type: 'named', nested: true }` to get per-tag barrel files.

         body: |
-          Use `importPath` when you want to:
+          Reach for a custom client when you need to:
 
-          - **Customize the HTTP client**: Provide your own client implementation with custom configurations (e.g., baseURL, headers, interceptors)
-          - **Add authentication**: Include authentication tokens or other security mechanisms in your client
-          - **Override default behavior**: Replace the default Kubb client with your own implementation
+          - Add an auth token to every request.
+          - Plug in interceptors, retries, or logging.
+          - Configure `baseURL` and headers from environment variables.
+          - Wrap a library other than `axios`/`fetch`.
       - title: Default behavior
         body: |
-          When `importPath` is not specified:
+          Without `importPath`:
 
-          - If `bundle: false` (default): Uses `@kubb/plugin-client/clients/${client}` where client is either `axios` or `fetch`.
-          - If `bundle: true`: Bundles the client into `.kubb/fetch.ts`.
-      - title: Import structure
-        body: 'Generated code imports the client as a default import and the runtime types as named type imports:'
+          - `bundle: false` (default) — generated code imports from `@kubb/plugin-client/clients/{axios|fetch}`.
+          - `bundle: true` — Kubb writes `.kubb/fetch.ts` (or `.kubb/axios.ts`) and generated code imports from there.
+      - title: Required exports
+        body: |
+          The module pointed to by `importPath` must satisfy the same shape as the built-in client. At minimum:
+
+          - A default export of the `client` function.
+          - A `RequestConfig` type.
+          - A `ResponseErrorConfig` type.
+
+          When used together with a query plugin (`@kubb/plugin-react-query`, `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`), it must also export a `Client` type alias.
+      - title: How generated files import it
+        body: |
+          Generated code imports the client as a default import and the runtime types as named type imports:

     important: |
-      When using `importPath` with query plugins such as `@kubb/plugin-react-query` or `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`, the generated hooks also import a `Client` type alongside `RequestConfig` and `ResponseErrorConfig` from the custom module. Your custom client module **must** export all three types — if any is missing, TypeScript will report an unresolvable import error.
+      When used with query plugins (`@kubb/plugin-react-query`, `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`), generated hooks also import a `Client` type alias. Your module **must** export `Client`, `RequestConfig`, and `ResponseErrorConfig` — TypeScript will fail the import otherwise.

-      The client automatically generates mapping code to convert camelCase parameter names back to the original API format. You write code with developer-friendly camelCase names, but HTTP requests use the exact parameter names from your OpenAPI specification.
+      Callers write friendly camelCase names. The generated client maps them back to whatever the API expects (snake_case path params, kebab-case headers, ...).

-      Defines the client code generation style.
+      Shape of the generated client code.
 
-      - `'function'` generates standalone functions for each operation.
-      - `'class'` generates a class with instance methods for each operation.
-      - `'staticClass'` generates a class with static methods for each operation. Use this style to call methods like `Pet.getPetById(...)` without instantiating the class.
+      - `'function'` (default) — one standalone async function per operation. Tree-shakes cleanly and works with every query plugin.
+      - `'class'` — one class per group/tag with an instance method per operation. Use this to share configuration (auth, headers) through the constructor.
+      - `'staticClass'` — one class per group/tag with static methods. Call as `Pet.getPetById(...)` without instantiating. Good for app-wide singleton clients.
     warning: |
-      When using `clientType: 'class'` or `clientType: 'staticClass'`, these are not compatible with query plugins like `@kubb/plugin-react-query` or `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`. These plugins are designed to work with function-based clients. If you need to use both class-based or static-class clients and query hooks, configure separate `pluginClient` instances: one with `clientType: 'class'` or `clientType: 'staticClass'` for your needs, and another with `clientType: 'function'` (or omit it for the default) that the query plugins will reference.
+      Only `'function'` is compatible with query plugins (`@kubb/plugin-react-query`, `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`). To use both classes and query hooks, register two `pluginClient` instances — one with `clientType: 'function'` for the query plugins to consume, and a second with `clientType: 'class'` or `'staticClass'` for your direct usage.
