note: >-
  Hero Bread publishes no OpenAPI, so this profile is built from live probes of the discovery
  documents and MCP endpoint on shop.hero.co rather than from securitySchemes. Two distinct auth
  postures are in play: the MCP commerce surface (anonymous discovery, JWT-bearing agent calls) and
  Shopify customer accounts (OAuth 2.0 / OIDC).
