Agent Readiness

/.well-known/api-catalog (RFC 9727)

RFC 9727 defines `/.well-known/api-catalog` as the canonical machine entrypoint for discovering an organization's APIs, formatted as an RFC 9264 linkset. Presence of a catalog at this path is one of the cheapest, highest-impact agent-readiness signals — agents do not have to crawl HTML to find specs.
