feat: Support environment variables for personal access token auth - #605
Merged
Conversation
The JavaScript SDK resolves a personal access token and workspace id from the environment, while this SDK only resolved SEAM_API_KEY. Match its precedence rules: an option always wins over the environment, SEAM_API_KEY is skipped when a personal access token is passed, SEAM_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN is skipped when an api key is set, and defining both raises. SeamWithoutWorkspace now takes an optional personal access token and falls back to SEAM_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN.

Summary
This PR adds support for reading personal access token authentication credentials from environment variables, making it easier to configure the Seam SDK without passing credentials directly to constructors.
