    The Insomnia Mock Server API allows developers to create, manage, and interact with mock servers powered by
    Insomnia (Kong). Mock servers simulate API endpoints by returning predefined responses based on OpenAPI
    specifications or custom route configurations, enabling teams to develop and test against realistic API behavior
    before the actual implementation is complete.
