Authentication Profile

generated: '2026-09-17'
method: probed
source: >-
  Live unauthenticated probes of registry.buildpacks.io/api/v1, the registry-api README
  (https://github.com/buildpacks/registry-api) and the Buildpack Registry Extension Specification
  (https://github.com/buildpacks/spec/blob/main/extensions/buildpack-registry.md)
docs: https://github.com/buildpacks/spec/blob/main/extensions/buildpack-registry.md
summary: >-
  The public buildpack registry API is read-only and entirely unauthenticated — no key, token,
  account or signup. All three operations return 200 to an anonymous request. Write access to the
  registry is not an API surface at all: publishing and yanking go through the `pack` CLI, which
  opens a GitHub issue against buildpacks/registry-index and authenticates with a GitHub token
  belonging to the buildpack author, not with a registry credential.
