description: >-
  APIs.json documents no rate limits, and has no callable API on which to enforce any.
  The only fetchable resources on apisjson.org are static files — the specification
  drafts, the JSON Schemas, the site pages and the provider's own apis.yml index — served
  from GitHub Pages behind Fastly and Cloudflare. A live unauthenticated response
  (2026-09-14) carried no RateLimit-*, X-RateLimit-* or Retry-After header. Any limiting
  that exists is edge/CDN infrastructure, undocumented by the provider. Honest zero.

  directive: >-
    The specification does define consumer-side pacing, which is the nearest thing it has
    to a rate-limit contract: robots may cache apis.* files but must verify freshness
    before use, should honour the origin Expires header, and should default to a 7-day
    expiry when no cache-control directive is present.

    This file replaces a bulk-sweep scaffold dated 2026-05-04 that asserted
    X-RateLimit-Limit / X-RateLimit-Remaining / X-RateLimit-Reset response headers and
    per-tier quotas for a provider that ships no API. Those headers are not returned;
    the scaffold's own description called the values defaults to be replaced.
