    All Pimlico bundler, paymaster, and platform API calls are authenticated
    with an API key passed as the `apikey` query parameter on the per-chain
    JSON-RPC endpoint, e.g.
    https://api.pimlico.io/v2/{chainId or chain-name}/rpc?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY.

    API keys are created and scoped (chain / IP / domain allowlists,
    sponsorship policies) in the Pimlico dashboard.
  - >-
    End-user authentication and account/user management for the Pimlico
    dashboard are handled by Clerk (per the published security.txt).

    The endpoint also accepts a legacy /v1/ path in addition to the current
    /v2/ path; the chain segment accepts either a numeric chain id or a chain
    name (e.g. sepolia).
