Cohesity OAuth Scopes

method: probed

docs: https://developers.cohesity.com/docs/getting-started
note: >-
  The published Cohesity OpenAPI documents declare only an apiKey security scheme
  and carry no oauth2 flows, so derive-oauth-scopes.py returned nothing. The scope
  set below was read from the live OIDC / RFC 8414 discovery documents Helios
  serves, which is where Cohesity's OAuth surface is actually described. Scope
  descriptions are NOT published by Cohesity - the discovery documents list names
  only - so no description is asserted for the three vendor-specific scopes.

      Vendor-specific Gaia read scope. The Cohesity Gaia MCP connector reference
      separately states that all Gaia MCP tools require the GAIA_VIEW privilege;
      no Cohesity document states the relationship between that privilege and this
      scope, so none is asserted here.
