# OUDEA Machine-Readable Schemas

This directory is reserved for machine-readable OUDEA contracts.

OUDEA v0.1 defines its normative interoperability requirements in the specification itself. No machine-readable schema in this directory is currently normative or required for OUDEA v0.1 conformance.

Future OUDEA versions may publish versioned schemas for public contracts such as:

- DEID documents
- references
- public index entries
- Find responses
- Exchange envelopes

The aim is to make OUDEA contracts directly consumable by software, agents, validators and independent implementations.

Where machine-readable schemas are introduced in the future, their status and relationship to the normative specification will be stated explicitly.
