    description: >-
      Chia RPC endpoints are secured with TLS mutual authentication using
      self-signed certificates. Each service (full_node, wallet, farmer,
      harvester, daemon, etc.) has its own private_ca / ssl cert + key pair
      generated on the node; clients must present the matching --cert and --key
      (and use --insecure against the self-signed CA). The RPC ports are intended
      to be bound to localhost and should NOT be exposed to the internet.

    cert_files:
      - config/ssl/<service>/private_<service>.crt
      - config/ssl/<service>/private_<service>.key
notes: >-
  There is no bearer/API-key or OAuth surface: authentication is the node
  operator's own TLS cert material. No published OpenAPI declares these schemes,
  so this profile is searched from the RPC docs rather than derived from a spec.
