      GenAI reporting API over canonical analytics rollups. Accepts a metric
      name, time range, grain, group-by, and filters; returns a typed time
      series and optional totals.
  - name: ReportingService
    description: |-
      ReportingService exposes a single QueryReport RPC that maps allowlisted
       analytics payloads onto safe rollup queries. Callers never send SQL;
       the backend picks the rollup family and grain from the metric
       catalogue, the requested range, and the requested grouping.

                    With workspace-level API keys, use the format
                    `project/folder/subfolder/...`. The first element identifies
                    the project, followed by nested folders (auto-created as
                    needed). Example: `Default/agents`.


                    With project-level API keys, the project is predetermined by
                    the API key, so the path is relative to that project.
                    Example: `agents`. For backward compatibility, a leading
                    project name is ignored when it matches the scoped project.
                  example: Default
