  key_types:
  - scope: organization
    prefix: gcai_
    identity: Represents the whole workspace (system account). Created/revoked by org admins.
    access: Only non-access-controlled resources; rejected by user-scoped endpoints (422).
    use_case: Backend services, scheduled jobs, shared automations.
  - scope: user
    prefix: 'u:gcai_'
    identity: Carries the individual member's identity; requires the org "User API Keys Policy" to be enabled.
    access: Everything the user can read, including privately shared files and projects; works with user-scoped endpoints (e.g. chat search, star/unstar).
    use_case: Individual scripting/analysis where attribution matters.

notes: >-
  The External API is key-only (no OAuth scopes). GC AI does run an OAuth 2.1
  authorization server, but only for its MCP server (see mcp/gc-ai-mcp.yml and
  well-known/gc-ai-oauth-authorization-server.json), not for the REST API.
