  organization, as lava-skill.md inside lava-mcp-toolkit (Apache-2.0). It is saved here verbatim.
  Its opening instruction - do not embed credentials in prompts, code, or committed files - and its
  three-access-method table are AGL's own words.

  covers:
  - instance layout (REST root /api/v0.2/, XML-RPC /RPC2, /api/help/ introspection)
  - token auth and where the credential lives for each of the three access methods
  - the REST endpoint table (jobs, devices, devicetypes, workers, tags, aliases)
  - XML-RPC-only calls with no REST equivalent
  - submit-and-poll and failure-triage workflows
  - error conventions (401/403 permission vs auth, 404 view permission, 400 definition validation)
  - LAVA job-definition and test-shell-definition YAML authoring
