Goal

Publish OAuth Protected Resource Metadata so agents can discover how to authenticate.

Result

OAuth Protected Resource has an informational finding because the page appears to support authentication.

Validation steps

Fetch protected resource metadata
The OAuth Protected Resource metadata endpoint did not return HTTP 2xx.
Validate protected resource metadata
Response is not valid JSON.
Validate protected resource identity
Protected resource metadata `resource` did not match the resource identifier used to retrieve it.
Probe protected API Bearer challenge
No protected route with a 401 Bearer challenge was detected; metadata alone does not prove a protected resource.
