detail: >-
  The Mina daemon GraphQL API has no token, API-key, or OAuth authentication.
  Security is enforced by network boundary: the GraphQL port (3085) binds to
  localhost by default and only accepts localhost connections unless the operator
  passes -insecure-rest-server. Individual accounts are protected by a passphrase
  and must be unlocked (unlockAccount) before they can sign/send transactions,
  then re-locked (lockAccount). Transaction authorization is cryptographic: each
  command is signed with the account's private key (see the mina-signer library).
schemes:
  - name: network-boundary
    type: none
    detail: GraphQL endpoint bound to localhost; exposing it to the internet lets anyone spend from known accounts.
    sources: [graphql/mina-graphql-schema.json]
  - name: account-passphrase
    type: passphrase
    operations: [unlockAccount, lockAccount, unlockWallet, lockWallet]
    detail: Accounts are unlocked with a passphrase before signing; MINA_PRIVKEY_PASS supplies it in daemon/sandbox startup.
    sources: [graphql/mina-graphql-schema.json]
  - name: transaction-signature
    type: cryptographic-signature
    detail: Payments/delegations/zkApp commands are signed with the account private key (mina-signer / o1js).
