S-Space OpenSearch Interface is one of 5 APIs that [Seoul National University](https://apis.io/providers/snu/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include OpenSearch, Search, Institutional Repository, DSpace, and Atom. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification.

OpenSearch 1.1 search over the SNU Open Repository and Archive. A description document is served at /open-search/description.xml as application/opensearchdescription+xml with LongName "SNU Open Repository and Archive", and /open-search/ answers keyword queries in Atom, RSS 2.0 or HTML with opensearch: namespace annotations. GATED, not open: unlike the OAI-PMH endpoints, this path sits behind the site's JavaScript interstitial, so a machine client receives HTTP 200 and a ~1 KB HTML shell carrying a js-challenge token rather than results. Every example in this repository was captured by replaying that token as a cookie. Recorded as a real surface with its real access condition attached.
