summary: >-
  CB Insights ships no maintained client SDK in any language. The developer portal documents cURL
  and hand-rolled Python `requests` calls only — there is no SDK page, no install snippet, and no
  package badge anywhere in the docs. The one first-party package that exists on a registry is a
  node client last published in 2016 whose source repository has since been deleted. Nothing in this
  file should be treated as a supported integration path.

  status_note: >-
    No release in ten years, and the declared source repository github.com/cbinsights/cbi-node now
    returns 404 — it has been deleted or made private. Predates both the v1 (2020) and v2 APIs, so
    it cannot target the current surface.
