  note: Anaconda runs a single OIDC identity service (issuer https://auth.anaconda.com/api/auth)
    that mints the bearer tokens the Platform APIs accept. The individual OpenAPI documents
    declare only the bearer/apiKey schemes; the OAuth 2.0 / OIDC layer is discovered
    from /.well-known/openid-configuration and documented in the docs pages above.
