+ * (`delegation.required_scope`, checked as exact membership of the token's `scopes` claim in
+ * `web/oauth.py`); both halves move together with Atlas.
+ *

+ * discovering. From the merged `browserstack/railsApp#175367` (2026-08-24):
+ *
+ *   - `ai_agent_notify` is documented there as CLIENT_ID/SECRET auth, and
+ *     `USERNAME_ACCESS_KEY_ONLY_SCOPES` remains only `user_management, oauth_user_profile`.
+ *     We are on the username+access_key flow, which those restrictions are not written for.

+ * is a PROVISIONING problem — the scope is not available to this credential type or this
