  Live-observed 401 from https://api.erebor.bank/ and the Auth0 configuration in
  the erebor.bank / developer.erebor.bank front-end bundles (env.js). Full auth
  documentation lives at https://docs.erebor.bank but is login-gated.
summary:
  types: [apiKey, oauth2]
  api_key_in: [header]
  oauth2_flows: [authorizationCode]
  notes: >-
    Two distinct auth surfaces. (1) Programmatic API access to api.erebor.bank is
    secured with an API key — an unauthenticated request returns HTTP 401
    {"error":"UNAUTHORIZED","message":"Invalid or missing API key."}. The exact
    header/parameter name is not documented publicly (docs are gated); header
    placement is inferred from the "API key" wording and common practice and is
    NOT confirmed. (2) Human access to the customer app (erebor.bank) and the
    developer dashboard (developer.erebor.bank) is via Auth0 (OpenID Connect /
    OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code), configured with auth0Domain, auth0ClientId,
    auth0Audience; the developer dashboard carries separate test and live Auth0
    configurations (test/live mode).
