  Registry searches against npm (registry.npmjs.org), PyPI, RubyGems, Packagist and
  Maven Central; the Mention GitHub organization https://github.com/mentionapp; and the
  Mention API reference https://dev.mention.com/current/

  note: >-
    Mention publishes NO first-party client library in any package registry. The API reference at
    dev.mention.com documents raw curl only — there is no SDK page, no "libraries" section, and no
    client repository in the company GitHub organization (github.com/mentionapp, 22 public repos,
    all of them PHP/Go infrastructure forks such as Doctrine, Valinor, php-rdkafka and a fork of
    kmyacc; none of them a Mention API client). The only installable wrappers are two abandoned
    community packages, both of which predate the current API version (1.21, 2023) by years.

      @tiptap/extension-mention, @ckeditor/ckeditor5-mention) — unrelated to this provider.

    Confirmed via api.github.com/orgs/mentionapp. The org exists and is first-party, but it carries
    no client library, no .proto, and no OpenAPI definition for the Mention API.
