UOW Handbook course catalog API (undocumented)

The UOW Handbook at courses.uow.edu.au is a Next.js application served from CloudFront on UOW's own registrable domain and backed by an AWS API Gateway at courses.uow.edu.au/api/. Every anonymous request to that gateway — /api/, /api/search, /api/course, /api/subjects, /api/publisher/configuration, /api/openapi.json — returns HTTP 403 {"message": "Missing Authentication Token"}, the API Gateway signature for an unmatched or unauthorized route, so no route, schema or specification could be recovered. The site's own robots.txt and sitemap.xml are open (HTTP 200) and the handbook content is fully crawlable as HTML. The handbook platform itself is CourseLoop's curriculum product; the gateway, the domain and the deployment are UOW's. No contract is saved because none is published.
