  openapi/alzheon-content-openapi.yml, plus the authentication block of the live route index
  at https://alzheon.com/wp-json/ and anonymous probes on 2026-07-31
note: >-
  Alzheon publishes no authentication documentation — there was no docs page to search, so
  this stays derived. The whole public surface is anonymous: no key is issued, no signup
  exists, and the only declared scheme is closed in practice.

  description: >-
    WordPress application passwords (HTTP Basic — WordPress username plus a generated
    application password). Advertised by the site's own route index under
    authentication.application-passwords, with the authorization endpoint at
    https://alzheon.com/wp-admin/authorize-application.php. Required only for write and
    administrative routes, none of which are in the OpenAPI. Alzheon issues no public
    credentials, so this scheme is declared but unreachable for third parties.

  verified: '2026-07-31'
  detail: >-
    All read operations were probed without any credential and returned HTTP 200.
    Administrative routes excluded from the spec return 401 with code rest_forbidden or
    rest_cannot_view_plugins.

    note: >-
      X-WP-Nonce is the cookie-authenticated browser flow used by the site's own admin
      screens; it is not available to third-party clients.
