docs(oauth2): document resource indicators - #81
Merged
Conversation
RFC 8707 landed in the code with #71, #74, #76 and #77, and the user-facing documentation never followed it: main has no mention of resource indicators anywhere under docs/content. The feature is opt-in and silent, so a reader has no way to discover it exists or to learn that a client can only request resources it was registered for. The text is e39cb15 from docs/rfc8707-resource-indicators, which was written against the feature but only ever reached branches that were superseded rather than merged. Restoring it here rather than leaving it to be lost with them.

RFC 8707 shipped across #71, #74, #76 and #77. The documentation did not follow it, and
mainhas no mention of resource indicators anywhere underdocs/content.That matters more than usual for this feature because it is opt-in and silent. A client that sends no
resourcegets exactly the token it always got, so nothing surfaces the capability to a reader, and nothing tells them a client may only request resources it was registered for.The text is
e39cb15, written against the feature ondocs/rfc8707-resource-indicators. That branch and its siblings were superseded rather than merged, so this section was about to be deleted along with them.Found while auditing every branch for work missing from main. Nothing else was missing.
