  First-party client libraries, SDKs and content packages for Red Hat Ansible Automation
  Platform. Red Hat does not ship conventional per-language REST SDKs for the Automation
  Controller / Gateway / EDA APIs; the supported programmatic clients are the Python
  distributions (awxkit is the Controller API client and `awx` CLI) and the certified Ansible
  Content Collections that wrap the same REST surface as Ansible modules.

    The Automation Controller REST API client and the `awx` command line tool. This is the
    closest thing AAP has to a first-party REST SDK, and its last PyPI release is 2024-07-02 —
    more than two years behind the Controller API this pipeline harvested, which is the
    clearest published decay signal on the provider's client surface.
