Auth.md Agent Registration

Informational

Issue

auth.md response did not match the expected agent registration shape. Content-Type "text/html; charset=UTF-8" is not Markdown or text/plain; missing registration instructions; missing /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource link; missing /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server link; missing supported identity type language; missing credential type language.

Why it matters

Agent registration metadata lets automated clients find the registration path, supported identity types, credential types, and related claim or revocation endpoints without scraping human docs.
