One of 9 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
We are building an OIDC client application that needs to perform dynamic discovery of an Identity Provider's endpoints and features. What exact standard URL path specified in RFC 8414 must be queried, and which specific JSON key in the response contains the authorization endpoint URL?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Specifies the URL path `/.well-known/openid-configuration`. | Missed | Passed |
| Identifies `authorization_endpoint` as the JSON response key for the authorization endpoint. | Passed | Passed |
