notes: >-
  Parallel Domain has no public REST/OpenAPI surface; access is through the
  first-party Python SDK (paralleldomain / pd-sdk) and the app console at
  app.paralleldomain.com. The SDK authenticates to the Data Lab / Step
  generation backend with an organization-scoped API key plus a credentials
  file, configured through environment variables. Auth model derived from the
  SDK getting-started docs, not from a machine-readable spec.
