  uChecker's published contract carries its integration guidance in one large Russian-language
  info.description blob: the credit model, the "no rate limits" statement, the task lifecycle,
  the error envelope and the polling advice are all prose. None of it is attached to the
  operations it governs, and none of it is in English. This overlay attaches the runtime
  semantics to the operations themselves, in machine-readable extensions, WITHOUT mutating the
  original spec. It also records the two contract defects found during enrichment (single
  validation has no idempotency key; the callback payload is unspecified) so a consumer sees
  them at the point of use. Apply with any Overlay 1.0.0 processor.

          translated.

        field: idempotency_key

        behavior: >-
          A repeat submission carrying an existing key returns the current status of the
          existing task instead of creating a new one and re-charging credits.

    description: >-
      Flag that the single-address endpoint has no idempotency protection — a retry
      double-charges.
    update:
      x-idempotency:
        supported: false
        note: >-
          Unlike POST /api/v1/validate/bulk, this operation accepts no idempotency_key. A
          network-level retry creates a second task and debits a second credit. Prefer the
          bulk endpoint with a single-element array when a retry is possible.

        note: >-
          uChecker POSTs results to this URL on completion but publishes no payload schema
          and no signature. Verify the outcome out-of-band via
          ValidationController_getTaskResults before acting on a callback.

    description: Record the contract/marketing discrepancy in the result model.
    update:
      x-result-model:
        contract: binary — validation_result is good | bad
        marketing: >-
          The website and dashboard describe Good / Bad / Risk archives and a five-way read
          (deliverable, undeliverable, catch-all, disposable, role-based) plus an "unknown"
          bucket.
        guidance: >-
          Build against the contract. Expect good|bad from the API and treat the richer
          taxonomy as a dashboard-only presentation until the provider documents it.
