Sign-in
Run/crustdata:login to sign in with your Crustdata account. It’s a one-time browser sign-in, no API key to copy or paste. The data tools and the skills share that single sign-in, tokens refresh silently, and if it ever expires a Crustdata tool call points you back at the command. CRUSTDATA_API_KEY works as an override if you’d rather pass a key directly.
