rules:
  - name: Verify Public Endpoints
    description: >-
      Only document Hubbell endpoints that are publicly reachable and
      have published terms of use. Do not include partner only or EDI
      endpoints in apis.yml.
  - name: Separate Hubbell Connect From Public APIs
    description: >-
      Hubbell Connect is an authenticated customer experience and is
      not equivalent to a developer API. Track it as a customer portal
      property rather than as an API.
  - name: Track EDI Channels Distinctly
    description: >-
      EDI capabilities are partner integration channels rather than web
      APIs. Document them with type EDI when they appear, not as API
      properties.
  - name: Map By Business Unit
    description: >-
      Hubbell spans Power and Utilities, Lighting and Controls, Wiring
      and Electrical, and Datacom. Tag any future APIs with the
      relevant business unit so consumers can filter by domain.
  - name: Cite Authoritative Sources
    description: >-
      Pull descriptions and specifications from the official Hubbell
      website and division specific microsites rather than third party
      summaries.
  - name: Update Modified Date On Change
    description: >-
      Whenever apis.yml is updated, set the modified field to the current
      date so downstream tooling can detect changes.
