authentication:
  styles:
  - Bearer token in the Authorization header ("Bearer {YOUR_AUTH_KEY}")
  - apikey query parameter
  note: Personal access tokens issued/revoked from the dashboard. See authentication/steadyapi-authentication.yml
versioning:
  style: uri-path
  note: >-
    Versioned in the URL path. v1, v2 and v3 are served concurrently; newer
    endpoints are flagged in the docs and older ones carry a pointer to their
    replacement (e.g. "We have a newer version of this endpoint: /v2/search").
pagination:
  style: offset
  note: >-
    Where paginated, endpoints take a page/offset parameter (default 0) plus
    sort parameters; not all read endpoints paginate. No cursor pagination
    documented.
rate_limit_signaling:
  status: 429
  headers: none-documented
  note: >-
    Exceeding 15 requests/second returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests. No
    RateLimit-* / X-RateLimit-* / Retry-After headers are documented. See
    rate-limits/steadyapi-rate-limits.yml
error_envelope:
  format: custom-json
  shape: '{"message": string, "errors": {"<field>": ["<message>"...]}}'
  note: >-
    Validation errors return a message plus a per-field errors object
    (Laravel-style). Not RFC 9457 problem+json. See
    errors/steadyapi-problem-types.yml
idempotency:
  coverage: na
  mechanism: null
  header: null
  note: >-
    SteadyAPI is a read-only data-retrieval API — every documented operation is
    an HTTP GET returning data. There is no mutating/write surface, so
    idempotency keys and replay protection do not apply.
reversibility:
  applicable: false
  note: >-
    Read-only API with no write, create, delete or transactional surface;
    reversibility is not applicable.
