  requested: '2026-10-05'
  source:
  - https://github.com/api-evangelist/urantia-papers/pull/1
  request: Add the public OpenAPI 3.1 (https://api.urantia.dev/openapi.json, base https://api.urantia.dev), move docs
    to https://docs.urantia.dev, and add auth/rate-limit sections, the MCP server, Postman collection, SDKs, support,
    changelog, status, terms, privacy, license, GitHub org/repo, llms.txt, agent skills, the RFC 9727 catalog and the
    robots.txt Content-Signal line. The API is public, keyless, has no paid tier, and the code is MIT.
  ledger:

  - urantia-papers-26a50a7b (apis.io Add-form submission 2026-10-03, same provider)
  applied: '2026-10-05'
  applied_note: Applied by hand; every URL verified 200 on 2026-10-05 with 404 controls on docs. and api. hosts. OpenAPI
    3.1 (Urantia Papers API 1.0.0, 27 paths / 29 operations, MIT, keyless) saved verbatim to
    openapi/_original/urantia-papers-openapi.json and split/standardized into 13 per-tag APIs. MCP server at
    https://api.urantia.dev/mcp probed live (initialize + tools/list, no credentials, 19 tools) and recorded in
    mcp/urantia-papers-mcp.yml, replacing the earlier record of the docs-platform search MCP at urantia.dev/mcp (now a
    308). Common pointers added as requested plus the MCP server card from the api-catalog. NOT applied - the Postman
    collection (https://www.postman.com/urantia-dev/urantia-papers) - the page is a client-rendered shell and no
    first-party page links it, so it could not be verified. The PR was not merged.
