OAuth discovery document

A discovery document is the /.well-known metadata that advertises an OAuth server's endpoints, so a client configures itself from one URL instead of hard-coded links.

Definition

Credicorp publishes two: /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server (RFC 8414) describes the token endpoint, JWKS URI and supported grants; /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource tells a client which authorization server guards a resource — used by MCP clients.

In plain terms

A standard file that lets OAuth clients wire themselves up automatically.

Why it matters here

Point your library at the base URL and it reads these. See the authorization-server and protected-resource docs.
