  canonical: true
  host: docs.cloud.cdata.com
  note: Served from CData's own documentation host. The pre-0.3 legacy path /.well-known/agent.json returns 404 on this host; the canonical A2A 0.3 path is the one that answers. The same path 404s on www.cdata.com and cdata.com, and returns the Connect AI SPA shell (HTML, not JSON) on cloud.cdata.com — only docs.cloud.cdata.com serves a card.

deviations:
- field: protocolVersion
  observed: '0.3'
  note: Declares the 0.3 protocol revision rather than 1.0.0. Not a hard failure — the card validates against the 1.0.0 structural checks — but a consumer pinning 1.0.0 semantics should treat the declared revision as authoritative.
- field: skills[0].tags
  observed: []
  note: The single skill declares an empty tags array. Structurally valid; carries no routing hints, so an orchestrator cannot select this agent by tag.
- field: capabilities
  observed: '{streaming: false, pushNotifications: false}'
  note: Both optional transport capabilities are explicitly false. Honest and machine-readable, but it means the card advertises no streaming or push channel.

lead:
  note: 'Per STEP 0b, an agent card is also a lead for an MCP endpoint. This card points at the docs site rather than an MCP URL, but the skill it names publishes the real endpoint: https://mcp.cloud.cdata.com/mcp, probed separately and recorded in mcp/cdata-mcp.yml.'
