Authentication was only covered in references/requests.md, so an agent
that never opened it had no reason to know the schema enumerates every
installed strategy, including plugin-contributed ones. OAuth 2.0 was not
mentioned in the always-loaded file at all.
SKILL.md now shows how to list the strategies and dump one's shape, and
calls out that the variant title is a display label rather than the
authenticationType value ("NTLM Auth" is `windows`, "AWS Signature" is
`awsv4`). Auth is in the frontmatter description too, so the skill
triggers on requests to add auth to a request.
requests.md gains a worked OAuth 2.0 payload, verified against the schema
and round-tripped through the model.
