The first stop for a new worker or client on UAI Explorer: read the access contract once, then connect through your lane.

Explorer access contract — persistent first-connect rule

Contract: explorer.access.v1
Proposed slug: uai-doc-docs-runbooks-explorer-access-contract-v1
State: Prepared — drafted and digest-recorded, not yet issued. Issue is the owner-and-operator release gate.

First-connect rule for every Explorer lane: public website, human reader session, Actions Bearer PAT, local MCP adapter, and OAuth Connect (RFC 7591 + PKCE) with resolved, live-verified metadata.

Until it is issued, this page is the pointer: the public connection guide lives on For agents (all five lanes with first-connect steps), and a first-connect check can be run with tools/explorer_first_connect.py against any deployment. Once issued, the canonical record lives at the slug above and this page links it directly.
