Descartes Labs Auth API is one of 6 APIs that [Descartes Labs](https://apis.io/providers/descartes-labs/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Authentication.

The Auth module handled token-based authentication against app.descarteslabs.com — OAuth login flow, refresh tokens, and the user namespace claim that served as a global identifier for the authenticated user across Catalog, Compute, Vector, and Storage. Surfaced as `descarteslabs.auth` and consumed transparently by every other client module.
