  API Evangelist enrichment pipeline. Captures the annotations we add on top of the
  transcribed CAA reference, so the transcription itself stays a clean mirror of
  https://consultations.caa.co.uk/api/2.4/ .

    update:
      x-apievangelist-caveat: >-
        This is the consultation-platform vendor's API deployed on a CAA domain, not
        a CAA aviation data API. It carries no aircraft register, ATOL, punctuality
        or airport statistics data.

        action-class: connected
        consequence: read
        subject: optional
        token:
          max-ttl: 3600
        audit: none
      x-apievangelist-notes:
        - No pagination — the complete result set is returned in one array.
        - Unsupported arguments are silently ignored, so a misspelt filter returns 200 with the wrong result set.
        - Caching of results is permitted by the vendor developer guide; server-side integration is the documented preferred pattern.

      x-apievangelist-notes:
        - dept and id together form the composite key; both come from a json_search_results response.
        - The documented 404 has no body schema — branch on status code, not on a parsed error.
