    Derived from documentation and the official Frontify Authenticator package
    rather than an OpenAPI spec (Frontify's public API is GraphQL; no OpenAPI is
    published). Scope strings are intentionally not enumerated here — the exact
    scope reference is behind the SPA developer portal and was not verified in
    this pass, so no scopes/ artifact is asserted.
