source: https://codspeed.io/docs
notes: >-
  CodSpeed publishes no standalone public REST API OpenAPI, so this profile is
  searched from the docs rather than derived from a spec. It documents the auth
  models across CodSpeed's programmatic surfaces.
summary:
  types: [oauth2, oidc, token, github-app]
schemes:
  - name: mcp-oauth
    surface: MCP Server (mcp.codspeed.io/mcp)
    type: oauth2
    detail: >-
      The hosted MCP server uses OAuth. On first connect the client opens a
      browser to log in to CodSpeed and authorize access; tokens are stored and
      refreshed automatically. Grants the same repository/data access as the
      account.

  - name: ci-oidc
    surface: GitHub Actions CI
    type: openIdConnect
    detail: >-
      Benchmark runs authenticate to CodSpeed from GitHub Actions via OIDC,
      requiring the workflow `id-token: write` permission (no stored secret).

  - name: github-app
    surface: Repository integration
    type: github-app
    detail: >-
