description: >-
  Tailor's platform authorization server publishes RFC 8414 metadata but does NOT
  advertise a scopes_supported list. The only scope vocabulary Tailor documents is the
  two-value read/write pair attached to personal access tokens. Application-level OAuth2
  clients declare their own grant types in code; scope names are chosen by the customer
  building the application, not by Tailor, so there is no platform-wide scope catalog to
  harvest.

gaps:
- >-
  scopes_supported is absent from the published authorization server metadata, so an
  agent cannot discover the platform scope vocabulary without documentation.
- >-
  Application OAuth2 clients are declared with redirectURIs and grantTypes in
  `defineAuth()`; the docs show no scope parameter, so per-application authorization is
  expressed through roles and attributes rather than OAuth scopes.
