  title: WordPress.com REST API — wp/v2 namespace Block Directory API
  version: v2
  description: Derived by API Evangelist from the WordPress.com REST API route index published at https://public-api.wordpress.com/wp/v2/. Paths, HTTP methods, and parameter names/types/descriptions/defaults are taken verbatim from that index. Response schemas are not published in the route index, so successful responses are described but not schematised; the error envelope was observed live on public-api.wordpress.com.
