I found bot passwords, but they offer very limited user rights. So the best thing is to try without API?

The intro section of that page explains which action to use. I don't think the compat branch of Pywikibot supports OAuth; it definitely does not support action=clientlogin (which is not meant for bots). It will work with action=login and bot passwords [1] after [2] is merged.
