  DeBounce runs a real, per-component status page with a machine-readable
  incident feed, a public changelog and a public roadmap. What it does NOT
  publish is any API lifecycle policy: there is no versioning policy page, no
  deprecation policy, no Sunset/Deprecation header support, and no uptime SLA.
  The one commitment it does make is about validation ACCURACY, not availability.

versioning:
  scheme: uri-path
  current: v1
  policy_url: null
  hosts:
  - host: api.debounce.io
    versioned: true
    prefix: /v1/

  - file: openapi/debounce-disposable-api-openapi.yml
    info_version: 1.0.0
  note: >-
    /v1/ has been the only published version since the API was documented. No
    v2 exists and no version-negotiation header is documented.

deprecation:
  policy_url: null
  policy_published: false
  sunset_header: false
  deprecation_header: false
  rfc8594: false
  note: >-
    No deprecation policy, no notice period, and no RFC 8594 Sunset/Deprecation
    header support could be found on the developer portal, the help centre or the
    marketing site. No Deprecation pointer is emitted for this provider.

    Every one of the five API surfaces in this profile is individually monitored,
    including the two free ones. The component list independently confirms Logo
    API and Disposable Detector API are first-class DeBounce products.

findings:
- >-
  Operational transparency is strong on the runtime side (per-component status,
  RSS incident feed, public roadmap and changelog) and absent on the contract
  side (no versioning policy, no deprecation policy, no Sunset header).
- >-
  A consumer has no documented notice window if /v1/ is ever retired.
