  Named-path /.well-known probe across every host this record knows plus the hrblock.com
  subdomains that resolve in DNS. TWO real documents were served: login.hrblock.com
  publishes a full OpenID Connect discovery document and an RFC 8414 OAuth 2.0
  authorization-server metadata document (PingFederate). Both are saved verbatim. No
  security.txt, api-catalog, ai-plugin.json or agent card was served on any host.
notes: >-
  www.hrblock.com and investors.hrblock.com answer 403 "Access Denied" from the Akamai
  edge for EVERY path and every User-Agent tried (browser, Googlebot, bingbot, curl,
  none) — that is a bot challenge against our network, not a statement that the paths are
  absent. api.hrblock.com (the baseURL on record) does not resolve at all. The hosts that
  look like H&R Block's API estate — developer.hrblock.com, apiportal.hrblock.com,
  apigw.hrblock.com, mcp.hrblock.com, edge.hrblock.com, services.hrblock.com,
  connect.hrblock.com — all resolve in public DNS but refuse or drop TCP on 80/443, i.e.
  they are internal/partner-network only.
hosts:
  - host: login.hrblock.com
    note: PingFederate authorization server — the only first-party host serving machine-readable documents.
