  plane. The platform exposes a REST API, a GraphQL API and an Agent API used
  by buildkite-agent. Resources include organizations, pipelines, pipeline
  templates, builds, jobs, agents, clusters, queues, teams, rules, artifacts,
  annotations, and access tokens. Test Engine adds test execution and analytics
  endpoints.
