  description: Record how this document came to exist and who stands behind each claim in it.
  update:
    x-enrichment-note: Derived by the API Evangelist enrichment pipeline on 2026-09-07 from a first-party discovery
      document fetched from an ARC-controlled host. The Appalachian Regional Commission publishes no OpenAPI,
      no API documentation and no developer program; nothing in this file is an ARC claim about itself.
    x-enrichment-scope: ARC's 108 public ArcGIS hosted feature services.
    x-provider-published: false

  description: State the runtime posture the derived operations do not carry on their own.
  update:
    x-access: anonymous — no key, no token, no signup
    x-write-surface: none. Read-only for anonymous callers.
    x-idempotency: na — no anonymous write surface exists
    x-reversibility: na — no action an agent takes here can need reversing
    x-rate-limits: none published; no rate-limit headers returned
- target: $.info
  description: Flag the two behaviours that most often break naive ArcGIS clients.
  update:
    x-error-status-untruthful: Errors are returned with HTTP 200 and an {error:{code,message,details}} body. Clients
      must inspect the body, not the status line.
    x-format-required: Omitting the f query parameter returns the HTML services directory, not JSON.
    x-ogc-api-features: Not enabled on any of the 108 services. /OGCFeatureServer and /WFSServer were probed on
      2026-09-07 and both miss; f=geojson on /query is the standards bridge ARC offers.
- target: $.servers
  description: Name the organization the server path belongs to, so the org id is not read as an opaque token.
