note: >-
  Bit has no captured OpenAPI, so this profile is hand-searched from the docs
  rather than derived. Bit Cloud authentication is token-based: `bit login`
  performs an interactive OAuth-style browser login and stores a Bit Cloud
  auth token locally; the token authenticates CLI operations (export, import,
  ripple CI) and the GraphQL API. For package installation from the Bit Cloud
  npm registry, `bit npmrc generate` writes registry auth into `.npmrc`.
