Add `api_key` field to Config, populated from the TOWER_API_KEY env var. When set, make_api_configuration() uses the X-API-Key header instead of Bearer JWT auth, skipping session-based authentication entirely. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
When TOWER_API_KEY env var is present, skip JWT validation and session.json loading entirely. The API key is self-contained and doesn't need a persisted session. Priority order: TOWER_API_KEY > TOWER_JWT > session.json Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Show a yellow warning explaining that the API key will continue to take precedence over the session created by the login flow. Prompt the user to confirm before proceeding. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add cli_api_key_auth.feature with scenarios for: - Listing apps with API key (verifies JSON output, no session.json created) - Listing teams with API key (verifies no session.json created) - Login warning when TOWER_API_KEY is set Add "via CLI with API key" step that uses TOWER_API_KEY env var with a temp HOME (no session.json) to prove API key auth works standalone. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
When authenticating via API key, call the /teams API endpoint directly instead of refreshing the session (which requires a session.json). Add list_teams API wrapper and ResponseEntity impl for ListTeamsSuccess. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
When authenticating via API key, call the /teams endpoint directly instead of refreshing the session. Mirrors the same fix applied to the CLI teams list command. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Hmm doesn't the session have the tower-url on it?
