# lunchbox — Spectral ruleset (strengthened)
# Plain Spectral. Existing hand-authored rules preserved; measured rules added
# from this provider's own OpenAPI conventions by strengthen_ruleset.py,
# then self-validated against the spec.
#
# Provenance:
# - servers-https-only: 100% of servers already https (error)
# - servers-expected-domain: 3/3 servers on lunchbox.io
# - path-params-casing: snake @ 100% (n=100)
# - query-params-casing: snake @ 100% (n=30)
# - operationid-casing: camel @ 100% (n=102)
# - schema-names-casing: pascal @ 100% (n=33)
# - schema-properties-casing: snake @ 93% (n=207)
# - security: global (root) — NOT emitting operation-security-required
# - pagination params observed: ['limit', 'page']
# - merge: kept 31 existing, added 6 measured, upgraded 0
# - added: servers-expected-domain, path-params-casing, query-params-casing, schema-names-casing, schema-properties-casing, no-empty-descriptions
