note: >
  Upgraded from the mechanical derive. Both OpenAPI documents declare a single `BearerAuth`
  (http/bearer/JWT) scheme, which understates the real model: the two APIs mint that bearer
  token in completely different ways, and a third surface (the MCP server) is protected by a
  separate OAuth authorization server discovered via RFC 9728.

mutual_tls: false
gaps:
- The specifications do not model the OAuth2 flows at all — only the resulting bearer token —
  so tooling generated straight from the spec cannot obtain a Studio credential.
- No per-resource scopes; see scopes/clear-street-scopes.yml#granularity.
