  description: State the real base URL model. These are customer-hosted control planes; the declared server
    is a placeholder, not a reachable host.
  update:
    x-base-url-model:
      model: customer-hosted
      effective_base: https://{bigip}/mgmt/shared/appsvcs
      note: The caller supplies the host. No F5-operated endpoint serves this API.

  description: Summarise the authentication the provider documents, which this contract does not fully
    declare.
  update:
    x-authentication-note: HTTP Basic over TLS against a BIG-IP administrative user, or the X-F5-Auth-Token
      header obtained from POST /mgmt/shared/authn/login on the same device.
- target: $.info
  description: Point at the derived error catalog and note what the contract omits.
  update:
    x-error-note: AS3 declares 404/422/500/503 with prose only and no error schema. 503 means another
      declaration is in flight — retry with backoff or use ?async=true.
- target: $.info
  description: Integration notes an agent needs that are not expressible in the contract itself.
  update:
    x-integration-notes:
    - No operation in this contract declares an operationId. Bindings must be made by method+path.
    - controls.dryRun=true runs the full validation chain without deploying, and is wired to the DELETE
      path as well as the POST paths.
    - GET /declare?age=0-15 retrieves prior declarations (?age=list indexes them); re-POSTing one is the
      documented undo. Default retention is 4, configurable to 15 via historyLimit.
    - The declaration body is governed by the AS3 JSON Schema published separately at schema/latest/as3-schema.json
      in the same repository, not by this OpenAPI.
- target: $.info
  description: Record the measured absence of rate-limit signalling so a consumer does not go looking
    for headers that are never sent.
  update:
    x-rate-limit-signalling:
      headers: []
      status_on_exhaustion: null
      note: No rate-limit header or 429 response is declared in this contract, and F5 publishes no limits
        for its own APIs. See ../rate-limits/f5-rate-limits.yml.
