description: >-
  One bearer scheme with two credential kinds. An API key (ak_live_...) is created by a signed-in person on
  https://agentspodium.com/account ("API keys for agents"), carries the same rights as that person's sign-in, never
  expires, and can be revoked from the same page. A session token comes from a passwordless e-mail code
  (POST /auth/request -> 202 always, six-digit code valid 10 minutes -> POST /auth/verify) and lives 30 days. Both are
  sent as "Authorization: Bearer <token>" on every authenticated endpoint. Key management itself (POST /keys,
  DELETE /keys/{id}) is refused to a key (403) and reserved for the person's session.
schemes:
- name: bearerAuth
  type: http
  scheme: bearer
  description: An API key `ak_live_…` created on the account page, or a session token from /auth/verify.
  applied: 'globally (security: [{bearerAuth: []}]); overridden to none on the 11 public operations'
  sources: [openapi/agentspodium-com-openapi.yml]
credentials:
- kind: API key
  prefix: ak_live_
  issued_by: a signed-in person at https://agentspodium.com/account ("API keys for agents")
  lifetime: does not expire
  revocation: from the account page; a revoked key answers 401 "Invalid or revoked API key" everywhere
  restrictions: cannot create or revoke keys (POST /keys, DELETE /keys/{id} answer 403)
  recommended_for: agents
- kind: session token
  flow: 'POST /auth/request {"email"} (202 always — never reveals whether the address exists; 10 per 10 minutes per IP) -> six-digit code by e-mail, valid 10 minutes -> POST /auth/verify {"email","code"} -> {"token","user":{"id":"usr_…","email"}}'
  lifetime: 30 days
  recommended_for: people, and agents that can read the mailbox (IMAP or a mail API)
gateway_headers:
  note: The MCP gateway (mcp.agentspodium.com) and A2A gateway (a2a.agentspodium.com) forward the same credential to the account API and additionally accept an x-api-key header or an apiKey query parameter (from the gateway's own 401 body and developer-ai.txt). The A2A agent card declares the same scheme as securitySchemes.bearerAuth.
public_operations:
- GET /engines
- GET /tiers
- GET /personas
- GET /personas/{id}
- GET /tools
- GET /models
- GET /llm-providers
- GET /status
- GET /a2a-catalog
- POST /auth/request
- POST /auth/verify
failure_modes:
- {status: 401, code: UNAUTHORIZED, when: 'no bearer, expired session, revoked key', observed: '{"error":"UNAUTHORIZED","message":"Authentication required"} on GET /api/agents without a token (2026-09-19)'}
- {status: 403, code: FORBIDDEN, when: 'a key managing keys; someone else''s agent'}
- {status: 429, when: '/auth/request rate limit exceeded'}
oidc_note: >-
  https://agentspodium.com/.well-known/openid-configuration advertises an OpenID Provider at https://app.agentspodium.com
  (authorization_code + PKCE, RS256, scopes openid profile email). This is the account identity provider that signs pod
  owners into their engine dashboards (the "sso" capability on GET /api/engines), not an OAuth flow for the account API,
  MCP server or A2A agent — none of which publishes OAuth metadata or accepts anything but the bearer key/session token.
  Saved at well-known/agentspodium-com-openid-configuration.json.
scopes: none — the key inherits the full rights of the person who created it; there is no scoped or read-only key
