Identify the calling API key (whoami)

Returns the API key record corresponding to the presented credential — name, prefix, scope, actor type/name. The full secret is never re-exposed. Used by breadbox auth whoami so agents and humans can confirm which identity the CLI is acting under. Any scope; the data only describes the caller’s own key.

X-API-Key · string · header · required

Breadbox API key with format bb_<base62>. Carries either read_only or full_access scope. Write endpoints (and a handful of sensitive reads — /api-keys, /users/{user_id}/login) require full_access; endpoints that require it are flagged in their description.
