  Nerve publishes a try-it surface but it is gated, and there are no test credentials, magic values or
  fixture tokens anywhere in the documentation. The OpenAPI documents name trynerve1.nerve.cloud as the
  server, and the Swagger UI embedded in the docs points at it, but the docs state plainly that using
  "Try it out" requires an account on that Management System, obtained by requesting a free trial or by
  raising an issue on the TTTech Industrial support portal. Against any other Management System the
  browser Try-it feature does not work at all, because CORS is deliberately disabled and a Nerve service
  technician has to configure the system first. There is no test-vs-live key prefix, no sandbox mode
  flag, and no published test data — this is a device-control platform, so the closest analogue to test
  data is a real node. Nothing has been invented here; every value below is quoted from the docs.
surfaces:
- name: trynerve1.nerve.cloud
  kind: hosted trial Management System
  url: https://trynerve1.nerve.cloud
  access: request a free trial, or contact support through the TTTech Industrial support portal
  gated: true
  note: >-
    The servers[] entry of the published Management System OpenAPI. Anonymous requests reach a
    single-page-app shell; every API path requires a session.
- name: Embedded Swagger UI
  kind: interactive API console
  url: https://docs.nerve.cloud/developer_guide/ms-api/
  gated: partially
  note: >-
    The specification renders and can be read anonymously; executing a call requires credentials on
    trynerve1.nerve.cloud. CORS is disabled on other Management Systems for security reasons.
- name: Nerve VM
  kind: virtual Nerve Device
  url: https://docs.nerve.cloud/device_guide/nerve-vm/
  gated: true
  note: >-
    A virtual-machine variant of a Nerve node exists in the device guide, which is the nearest thing to a
    local test rig; the image is obtained from the Nerve Software Center with customer-profile credentials.
test_values: []
test_credentials:
  published: false
  note: >-
    Initial Local UI login credentials are delivered per customer in the customer profile, not published.
    The docs repeatedly instruct implementers to change the default Local UI admin password and the host
    access password immediately after installation.
