Popmenu Authentication

note: >-
  NO AUTHENTICATION POINTER IS EMITTED IN apis.yml. Popmenu does not document
  authentication anywhere on its public surface — there is no auth page, no key format, no
  header name, no token endpoint, and no scope reference. This artifact records what the
  live endpoint does when called without credentials, which is a real measurement, but it
  is not the provider documenting authentication, and wiring a `type: Authentication`
  pointer would credit Popmenu with an ergonomics check it has not earned.
  derive-authentication.py produced no profile for this slug because there is no OpenAPI to
  derive one from.

  interpretation: >-
    Authentication is enforced ahead of query parsing and validation — an introspection
    query, a trivial `{__typename}` query and a query naming a nonexistent field all return
    the identical `unauthorized` envelope. The phrase "try signing back in" points at a
    session-cookie model serving Popmenu's own first-party apps; how a third-party partner
    presents credentials is not stated publicly.

    https://get.popmenu.com/developer-api is a lead-capture form. Submitting it lands on
    https://get.popmenu.com/success-api — "Thank you for your interest in working with
    Popmenu! We'll be reaching out to you soon." Credentials are issued through a sales /
    partner conversation.
  sandbox: not-published
  scopes: not-published
gaps:
- No published credential type, header name, or key prefix.
- No token endpoint, refresh flow, or expiry policy published.
- No OAuth or OIDC discovery document on any host.
- No scope or permission reference, so `scopes/` is deliberately not written (there is no
  OAuth surface to derive one from).
