  title: Modern Petstore API
  summary: A modern, realistic pet store API demonstrating current best practices
  description: >-
    This is a modern Pet Store API based on the OpenAPI 3.2 specification. It
    demonstrates contemporary API design patterns and best practices including
    RESTful compliance, proper HTTP methods, structured error responses (RFC
    9457), and modern authentication flows.


    Key features include pet catalog browsing, adoption workflow, order
    management, user accounts, AI-powered chat advisor, and real-time event
    notifications via webhooks. The API showcases OpenAPI 3.2 capabilities like
    hierarchical tags, QUERY HTTP method, OAuth device flow, and server-sent
    events.
