# Invisible mode
You can use `new Cap({ ... })` in your client-side JavaScript to create a new Cap instance and use the `solve()` method to solve the challenge. This is helpful for situations where you don't want the Cap widget to be visible but still want security, e.g. on a social media app when posting something.
```js
const cap = new Cap({
apiEndpoint: "/api/"
});
const solution = await cap.solve();
console.log(solution.token);
```
You can also set up [event listeners](widget.md#supported-events):
```js
const cap = new Cap({
apiEndpoint: "/api/"
});
cap.addEventListener("progress", (event) => { // [!code focus]
console.log(`Solving... ${event.detail.progress}% done`); // [!code focus]
}); // [!code focus]
```
Behind the scenes, Cap creates a hidden `cap-widget` element and uses it to solve the challenge.
## Supported methods and arguments
The following methods are supported:
#### `new Cap({ ... })`
Creates a new Cap instance. If a 2nd argument is provided, it will use that element instead of creating a new one in memory.
**Arguments**
```json
{
apiEndpoint: ..., // api endpoint, similiar to the widget `data-cap-api-endpoint` attribute
workers: navigator.hardwareConcurrency || 8 // number of worker threads to use
}
```
#### `cap.solve()`
Requests and solves a challenge.
**Output:** `{ token }`
#### `cap.token`
Returns the token from the latest solve
#### `cap.reset()`
Resets `cap.token`
#### `cap.addEventListener(..., function () { ... })`
Listens for an event for the cap widget. See [supported events](widget.md#supported-events)
