  Versioning and deprecation posture for the BlueStack SDK (Madvertise / Improve Digital
  InApp lineage). No SLA is published for the mng-ads.com ad-serving endpoints, and no
  working status page exists — see status_page below, which records a probed soft-200
  rather than an unchecked null.
versioning:
  scheme: semver
  current: 6.0.6
  docs: https://developers.bluestack.app/releases
  per_platform: >-
    Plugins version independently of the native core: Flutter is on its own 2.x line,
    Unity ships 3.4.1 on npm `latest` with 6.0.0-beta on `beta`, and .NET MAUI is on
    1.1.8. See packages/madvertise-packages.yml for the registry-verified matrix.
deprecation:
  policy: >-
    Major versions (v5 -> v6) ship breaking changes with dedicated per-platform
    migration guides; older major lines (4.x, 5.x) retain versioned docs and their own
    release-note channels (/releases/bluestack-android-sdk-4, -5, -6 and the iOS
    equivalents).

  migration_guides:

  sunset_header: false
  rfc8594: false
  detail: >-
    Deprecation is communicated as SDK migration guides only. There is NO API-side
    deprecation contract: the ad-request, OpenRTB and reporting HTTP endpoints are
    unversioned in path and carry neither Deprecation nor Sunset response headers.
api_versioning:
  ad_request: 'SDK version passed by the CALLER in the `v` query parameter — the API itself is unversioned'
  openrtb: 'x-openrtb-version: 2.5 request header (protocol version, not API version)'
  reporting: 'unversioned paths (/seller-reporting, /buyer-reporting, ...)'
  improvedigital_inventory: 'URI path /publisher/v1/ (sibling surface — see mcp/madvertise-mcp.yml)'
sla: null
status_page:
  url: null
  verified: false
  probed: https://status.azerion.com
  http_status: 200
  finding: >-
    SOFT-200 / FALSE POSITIVE. status.azerion.com resolves and returns HTTP 200 with a
    StatusIQ (Site24x7) page whose body reads "No status page found with this domain
    mapping." The DNS record and the vendor tenancy exist but no status page is
    configured behind them. status.bluestack.app does not resolve, and
    developers.bluestack.app/status returns 404. NO StatusPage pointer is emitted — a
    200 is not evidence of a document.
