  Wesco/Anixter merger and rebrand announcements already recorded in apis.yml, plus live
  probes for a status page, versioning policy and deprecation policy
provider: Anixter International
providerId: anixter-international
description: >-
  Lifecycle posture for Anixter International. Anixter is a brand inside Wesco
  International, not an independent operator: Wesco completed its acquisition of Anixter
  in June 2020 and the combined business now trades as Wesco Anixter. No API versioning
  policy, deprecation policy, SLA or status page is published on any reachable Anixter or
  Wesco surface.
company_lifecycle:
  status: acquired
  acquirer: Wesco International
  acquired: '2020-06'
  consideration: approximately USD 4.5 billion
  current_brand: Wesco Anixter
  brand_retired: false
  note: >-
    anixter.com is still served (behind a Cloudflare challenge) rather than redirected to
    wesco.com, so the Anixter surface has not been folded away. Treat this profile as a
    brand of Wesco International, cross-referenced by the ParentCompany pointer in
    apis.yml.
versioning:
  documented: false
  scheme: null
  evidence: No versioning policy found on any reachable host.
deprecation_policy:
  documented: false
  sunset_header: unknown
  deprecation_header: unknown
  evidence: >-
    No deprecation policy published; RFC 8594 Sunset/Deprecation header support could not
    be observed because no callable API endpoint is documented. No Deprecation pointer is
    emitted in apis.yml.
sla:
  documented: false
  evidence: No API SLA published. Distribution and supply-chain service levels are negotiated per customer contract.
status_page:
  present: false
  url: null
  evidence:
    - url: https://status.anixter.com
      status: '<no response>'
      note: Host does not resolve.
    - url: https://status.wesco.com
      status: '<no response>'
      note: Host does not resolve.
  note: No StatusPage pointer is emitted in apis.yml — none exists.
deprecated_operations: []
note: >-
  deprecated_operations is empty because there is no OpenAPI in this repo to derive it
  from, not because the provider has declared that nothing is deprecated.
