note: >-
  derive-oauth-scopes.py found no oauth2 securitySchemes because the published OpenAPI
  declares none - the REST contract is keyless. The OAuth surface belongs to the MCP
  server and its scopes were read directly from the live RFC 8414 / RFC 9728 discovery
  documents, not inferred.

scopes:
- name: mcp:read
  description: >-
    Read-only access to published NewTqnia content over MCP - recent news, a single
    article, a story timeline, glossary terminology and explainers, each as title,
    summary and canonical URL. This is what a signed-in reader's assistant receives.

  maps_to_tools: [server_status, get_recent_news, get_news_by_id, get_timeline_by_id, search_terminology, search_explainers]
- name: mcp:write
  description: >-
    Write access backing the editor/administrator content-drafting workflow the provider
    documents in llms.txt. No write tool is exposed in the anonymous tools/list result -
    all six live tools are annotated readOnlyHint:true - so the write surface this scope
    protects is visible only to an authorized editor session.

gaps:
- >-
  Scopes are coarse: one read and one write for the entire MCP surface, with no per-tool
  or per-content-type granularity. An agent that only needs the glossary must be granted
  the same scope as one reading every article.
- >-
  There is no published scopes/permissions reference page on the site; the scope names
  exist only in the discovery document.
- >-
  The two scopes are not referenced anywhere in the OpenAPI contract, so the REST and MCP
  authorization models are documented in entirely separate places.
