Keep it simple. Add one endpoint /episode/add that can be used by API as well as browser. Let the API check either cookie auth or password auth.

For updates, /episode/edit endpoint which may pass missing elements.

From bash, this is easy to use, pseudocode:

#/usr/bin/env bash

# Usage ./podlite episode/add "foo" "this is an episode" "foo.mp3" (need to take audio too for keep it simple).
# Usage ./podlite edit 2 '{"title", "foo2"}'
# Usage ./podlite edit 2 file=foo.mp3 (this should add the file and then check whether unused files and remove those.)

if "$1 == add"; then
  curl -X POST /episodes/add
else "$1 == modify"; then
   curl -X PUT /episodes/edit
fi

The less surprising the API, the easier it will be to use.
