    description: HTTP Basic auth with the API key as the username and an empty password
      (curl -u $API_KEY:). The official Python (uthana) and JS/TS (@uthana/client) clients
      handle authentication when constructed with the key.
    key_source: Generate the API key in account settings at https://uthana.com/app/account
      (requires an API-enabled plan).

notes:
  - No OAuth2 / OIDC surface is published (/.well-known/openid-configuration returns 403;
    no oauth docs).
  - Docs security guidance - treat the key like a password, store in a secret manager or
    environment variable, rotate via reset_user_apikey if leaked.
  - Custom API domains are supported via the client `domain` option for non-default hosts.
