What it means

Your site declares its authentication method in a machine-readable way.

Agents need to know how to authenticate before they can use your API. Without this, they're locked out.

This rule is verified by:

openapi json_schema Source: OpenAPI / JSON Schema

✗

No machine-readable auth info. Agents don't know if they need API keys, OAuth, or something else.

✓

Authentication method is clearly declared, so agents know exactly how to get access.
