    Add the servers[] block the vendor document omits, expressed as a templated
    deployment endpoint. ArangoDB is deployed per instance; on the Arango Managed
    Platform every deployment gets its own host on *.arangodb.cloud port 8529.

    Declare the security schemes the vendor document omits. The API requires HTTP
    Basic or a JWT bearer token on every /_api/ and /_admin/ route (see
    authentication/arangodb-authentication.yml); the published spec declares
    neither, which is recorded as a non-conformance in
    conformance/arangodb-conformance.yml.
