  First-party Forta client libraries and CLI tooling for building, running and
  deploying detection bots against the Forta Network. The SDK doubles as the
  bot-development CLI (init/run/publish). Note: the Forta GraphQL alerts API is
  consumed over plain HTTP with a Bearer key and has no dedicated client SDK.
