    Issue and validate OAuth 2.0 client-credentials tokens for service-to-service traffic — backend
    workers, CI/CD agents, automated data pipelines, and AI agents acting without a human in the loop.
    Stytch's M2M API mints scoped JWT access tokens against a registered M2M client (client_id +
    client_secret) and rotates them on demand.
