## Composable Core Updates: Private Token

Updates to the Composable Core course reflect the current recommended token types for client-side and server-side GraphQL Storefront API usage.

* **Storefront Token** — clarifies that the Storefront Token (`/v3/storefront/api-token`) is for client-side use only; removes references to server-side support
* **Private Token** — promotes the Private Token (`/v3/storefront/api-token-private`) as the correct token for server-side and headless server-to-server integrations; moves Server-Side Context content under this section
* **Lab updates** — renames the `private_token` Postman variable to `private_storefront_token` and removes the B2B scope from the token creation request
* **Customer context** — adds a callout distinguishing Bearer token types (Storefront Token for client-side, Private Token for server-side) in the customer context lesson
