# Get a realm's dispatch public key

    API tokens. Every call to CliqHub carries one as `Authorization: Bearer
    <token>`:


    - **User token** (`cliq_tok_…`): acts as you, optionally limited by
    `permissions` (which
      organizations and realms, and read / write / admin per kind of resource). `cliq login`
      stores one; mint more for scripts and CI.
    - **Realm token** (`cliq_dt_…`): what a daemon uses to join and work in a
    realm. Any
      member of the realm can mint one.
    - **A2A token** (`cliq_a2a_…`): what outside agents send to a realm's A2A
    endpoint. One per
      realm; minting a new one replaces the old.
    - **Dispatch token**: a short-lived signed token CliqHub uses when it sends
    work to a
      daemon; each realm has a dispatch key pair for it.

    A token is shown only when it is minted or rotated. A restricted token
    cannot mint a token

    wider than itself.
