api: Ascend Elements WordPress REST API
versioning:
  scheme: uri-path namespace
  current: wp/v2
  docs: null
  note: >-
    Versioning is the stock WordPress namespace convention (`/wp-json/<namespace>/<version>`).
    Ascend Elements does not author this contract — it moves when WordPress core and the
    installed plugins move — so there is no provider-owned version policy to capture.
deprecation:
  policy_url: null
  sunset_header: false
  deprecation_header: false
  note: >-
    No RFC 8594 Sunset or Deprecation headers were observed on any /wp-json/ response, and no
    deprecation policy is published. No Deprecation pointer is emitted.
deprecated_operations: []
deprecated_operations_note: >-
  No operation in the derived OpenAPI carries `deprecated: true`; the WordPress route index
  does not advertise deprecation state.
sla:
  url: null
  uptime_target: null
status_page: null
status_page_note: >-
  No status page was found. status.ascendelements.com does not resolve, and no status link is
  published on the site. No StatusPage pointer is emitted.
changelog:
  url: null
  note: >-
    Ascend Elements publishes no API changelog. The company news stream at
    https://ascendelements.com/category/news/ is corporate press, not API release notes, so no
    ChangeLog artifact is emitted. Note that the underlying software stack does version
    visibly — the route index exposes 21 plugin namespaces whose versions change with the
    site's own WordPress upgrades — but that is not a published provider changelog.

  note: general corporate contact; there is no developer support channel

x-notes: >-
  This is the lifecycle posture of a corporate website's CMS surface, not of a developer API
  programme. Ascend Elements makes no availability, versioning or deprecation commitment about
  /wp-json/ because it does not present it as a product. Recorded as honest absence rather
  than left blank.
