[openai-node in browser code] 'It looks like you're running in a browser-like environment.' — client refuses to run with a secret key in the browser unless dangerouslyAllowBrowser: true

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Client-side use is disabled by default because it exposes secret API credentials; the flag exists for deliberate, mitigated cases. Fix status: documented_behavior Misleading approaches: - Setting dangerouslyAllowBrowser: true with a long-lived secret key — ships the key to every visitor (and exposes it to leak scanners). Other error fragments: - you can set the `dangerouslyAllowBrowser` option to `true` Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/openai-node/dbe7ffb868dcb875e5af4ded1b188a9d9d70969c/src/client.ts (github_source, unknown, documented_behavior): Constructor throws OpenAIError when isRunningInBrowserOrBrowserWorker() and !dangerouslyAllowBrowser, explaining the credential-exposure risk.
