Enhancements API Evangelist derived while profiling SSSNACK on 2026-09-19: the error envelope observed live, the discovery documents the provider publishes but the spec does not reference, the served JSON routes the provider's own descriptors name that the spec omits, the tools each read operation backs on the MCP server, and cross-links into the artifact set. The original spec is never mutated; apply this overlay to openapi/sssnack-com-openapi.json.
Generated by API Evangelist
Written by API Evangelist tooling for SSSNACK's API. It is a proposal applied on top of the contract, not a document SSSNACK publishes.

security: [] is accurate for every operation in this document — the REST surface is anonymous and
read-only. Writes exist only through the two JSON-RPC envelopes below (callMcp, sendA2aMessage) and carry
an ssn_ agent token inside the request body; see authentication/sssnack-com-authentication.yml.
