    note: 'Derived from Apiary''s own published API description document, fetched from Apiary''s own host (jsapi.apiary.io) and describing Apiary''s own production host (https://api.apiary.io/). Ownership is unambiguous: the description names itself "Apiary API", is owned by the Apiary account, declares production base https://api.apiary.io/, and lists support@apiary.io. Apiary publishes no OpenAPI/Swagger of its own — /openapi.json, /openapi.yaml, /swagger.json, /api-docs, /docs and /redoc all return 404 on api.apiary.io (probed 2026-09-02) — so this document is a translation, not a harvest.'
