      "why-this-record-exists": "the registry's reviewer refused to let one record claim that all five of this endpoint's tools work keyless when one had been called, and named the condition for the other four: their own measured calls. This is one of those four. It is one request, per the probe schema's own title, \"One unauthenticated, unpaid request and what it answered\".",
      "what-it-establishes": "aws___read_documentation, the name this endpoint's own tools/list advertises, executes for a caller with no credential, no account and no payment, and returns real content rather than a refusal wrapped in a 200. It establishes this for aws___read_documentation and for no other tool.",
      "and-what-it-does-not-establish": "nothing about a rate limit: this request was spaced 25 to 26 seconds from its neighbours precisely to avoid the 429 this endpoint answered to a denser sweep on 2026-09-30 (p-20260930-aws-knowledge-mcp-anonymous-429), so the spacing was chosen to dodge a limit, not to measure one. Nothing about the unprefixed-name defect either: the name called here is the prefixed one that works.",
      "the-status-line-read": "the origin's status is the SECOND HTTP line in the captured headers. This container's egress proxy answers CONNECT with its own \"HTTP/1.1 200 Connection Established\" first; both lines are in the artifact so a reader meets the same trap.",
      "a-reading-nobody-asked-for": "max_length 2000 was honoured as a window into the DOCUMENT, not as a cap on the payload. The response reports end_index 2000 and truncated true, and delivers 2126 characters, because the server prepends a 126-character \"Table of Contents:\" block before the first heading: 126 + 2000 = 2126 exactly. A caller sizing a context budget on max_length gets 6.3% more than it asked for on this document. This is the same shape as the maxTokenBudget reading in PR #205 on the Microsoft Learn server: a budget parameter that governs part of the response rather than the response."

Two things, and the second was not asked for. The tool executes for an anonymous caller. And max_length is a window into the DOCUMENT, not a cap on the payload: the response reports end_index 2000 and truncated true and delivers 2126 characters, the extra 126 being a table-of-contents block the server prepends before the first heading, 126 + 2000 = 2126 exactly. A caller sizing a context budget on max_length receives 6.3 percent more than it asked for on this document.",
