      x-apievangelist-discovery: >-
        Not linked from any HTML page. Found by reading the developer portal's webpack chunk
        600.a73490e9.chunk.js, which passes specUrl `${portalUrl}/documentation/swagger.yaml`
        to RedocStandalone, with portalUrl read from
        https://developer.chrobinson.com/app-config.json.
  - target: $.info
    description: Add the machine-readable status surface, which the contract itself does not mention.

      x-status-api: https://api.navisphere.com/api/B2B/Portal/v1/statuses
  - target: $.info
    description: Record the observed rate-limit contract, which is returned as headers but undocumented.
    update:
      x-rate-limit-headers:
        - RateLimit-Limit
        - RateLimit-Remaining
        - RateLimit-Reset
        - X-RateLimit-Limit-Minute
        - X-RateLimit-Remaining-Minute
      x-rate-limit-observed:
        token_endpoint_per_minute: 3000
        portal_endpoint_per_minute: 750
  - target: $.info
    description: Record the absence of replay protection, so an agent does not assume retries are safe.
    update:
      x-idempotency:
        supported: false
        coverage: none
        note: >-
          No Idempotency-Key contract exists. Retrying Order Create, Booking Create or Load Book
          after a timeout can duplicate real freight.
  - target: $.servers
    description: Label the environments explicitly for agent consumption.
    update:
      x-environment-note: >-
        servers[0] is the sandbox and is the target of every published code sample; servers[1]
        is production. Test and live are separated by host only - credentials carry no
        distinguishing prefix.
  - target: $.paths['/v1/shipments/books'].post
    description: Flag the one high-consequence write with no reversal operation in the contract.
    update:
      x-reversibility:
        reversal: none
        window: null
        note: >-
          Booking a load has no API-level cancel. Reversal is a human process through the
          C.H. Robinson representative or carrier support.
  - target: $.paths['/v1/orders'].post
    description: Bind the create operation to its published reversal.
    update:
      x-reversibility:
        reversal_operation: Order Delete
        reversal_path: DELETE /v1/orders/{orderNumber}
        window: null
        window_note: C.H. Robinson does not publish a cancellation window.
  - target: $.tags[?(@.name=='Authentication')]
    description: Surface the 24-hour token lifetime as structured data rather than prose.
