Authentication boundary

Use an account-scoped developer API key with X-API-Key on every request. API keys do not grant administrator access. API-key management, admin routes, provider callbacks, internal reporting, and service-to-service credentials are not part of the public API reference.

Response shape

Successful responses include success: true, a resource-specific data object, a request_id, and a timestamp. Error responses include an HTTP status and a structured error code. See errors and retries.
