Description
## Context
OpenSSF Best Practices asks projects to consider secure delivery of project sites. Registry Stack has a public docs site, but the repo does not currently track a public decision about HTTP security headers for that site.
## Scope
- Inventory which security headers are currently applied to the public docs site, without publishing private hosting details.
- Decide which headers are appropriate for a static documentation site, such as HSTS, Content-Security-Policy, Referrer-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and Permissions-Policy.
- If the repo owns the deployment header config, add it and verify it.
- If headers are controlled outside the repo, document the public expectation and the verification command instead.
## Done when
- The repo has a public issue or doc decision for docs-site security headers.
- The chosen headers are either configured in repo or documented as an operator/deployment requirement.
- A repeatable check or manual verification command is documented.
## Non-goals
- Do not expose private hosting provider settings, deployment credentials, or internal infrastructure notes.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the public documentation site's deployment configuration and inspect its live HTTP response headers; no file or test is named in the issue. Record the selected headers and either verify the repository configuration or document the operator requirement with a repeatable check, excluding private hosting details.
