description: >-
  OAuth 2.0 scopes Capsule advertises. The authoritative list is
  scopes_supported in the served OAuth Authorization Server Metadata document
  (RFC 8414) on the API host; the authentication docs page documents only the
  three combinations an application is expected to request. Both are recorded,
  and where they disagree the discovery document wins.

scope_count: 7
documented_combinations:
- {value: 'read', meaning: Read-only access}
- {value: 'read write', meaning: Full read and write. The default an application receives.}
- {value: 'read write user_preference', meaning: Read, write and user preferences.}
notes:
- >-
  The docs page presents scopes as three fixed combinations rather than a
  composable set; the discovery document exposes seven individual values,
  including the four OIDC ones the docs never mention.
- >-
  Capsule publishes no per-operation scope mapping. Which endpoints require
  write versus user_preference is not documented, so an agent cannot compute
  least-privilege from the contract.
