  description: >-
    Pass the project API key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Keys are
    project-scoped and carry read/write permission levels. The API is OpenAI-compatible,
    so the same key works with the OpenAI SDK by setting base_url to
    https://api.inference.net/v1.
notes:
- Keys are managed in the dashboard, scoped per project, with read/write permissions.
- The hosted MCP server (https://mcp.inference.net/mcp) uses the same Bearer project key.
- CLI (`inf`) supports interactive sign-in and API-key auth for CI.
