I'm reading the API docs https://enterprise.wikimedia.com/docs/

And they don't have an OpenAPI spec available to download? So they seriously expect developers to just manually write their own client code by reading and translating those example CURL commands by hand??!

Seriously it's 2024! Not having a spec to download and insepct for any API is a sign of incompetence. When tools like Postman or https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator-cli exist and save hours of time, you can't seriously expect devs to write all this connecting code by hand anymore.
