> ## Agent Instructions
> Every Lath operation is POST https://platform.trylath.com/<operation name with dots replaced by slashes>, with a JSON body and `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. `email.send` is POST /email/send.
> Branch on `error.code`, never on `error.message`. Every refusal also carries `error.fix`, which names the next step.
> Send an `Idempotency-Key` header on any operation that is not retry-safe, so a retry cannot run it twice.
> A `lath_test_` key emails only the account's own members and sends no SMS; a `lath_live_` key reaches real recipients and is billed.
> The OpenAPI document, generated from the same registry as the routes, is at https://platform.trylath.com/openapi.json.

# auth.user.impersonate

> Issues an access token that acts as this user, for support. A reason is required and is recorded on the session and in the audit trail. The session says 'impersonation' in the token's amr, never carries the user's MFA state, lasts at most thirty minutes whatever the environment's session lifetime is, and cannot be refreshed — impersonate again to continue. A banned or deleted user cannot be impersonated.
