  description: The backend API behind the Crimson App student and mentor platform. There is no provider-published OpenAPI
    or public developer portal; the surface is documented and exercised through the first-party TypeScript SDK @crimson-education/sdk
    on npm, which names concrete REST paths under /roadmap/* and /api/v1/* (missions, action items, reflections, roadmap context,
    mission library, grade templates, package items, tutors, bookings, student profile, account and Indigo identity) plus
    a token-gated GraphQL endpoint at /graphql. Access is by Auth0 bearer JWT, a server-to-server crimsonauthkey service key,
    or an OAuth 2.0 authorization-code with PKCE flow the SDK implements but whose backend endpoints the SDK documents as
    not yet deployed.
