## Objective

Standing closing task, with an honest target: Render has no API-key management API (keys are dashboard-only there — docs/ADR018-render-parity.md §bex-ahead-of-Render), so the comparison verifies bex's own cross-surface consistency (REST/GraphQL/MCP/dashboard show the same fields, semantics, and error shapes) and updates the parity matrix's api-keys row/notes if the divergence description changed. Flag any drift as follow-up, never silently.

## Acceptance criteria

- [x] Four surfaces consistent; docs/ADR018-render-parity.md api-keys notes still accurate after the change.
