Static review only, never mutates a NetSuite account.",
  "focus": "Authentication mechanism design and correctness in NetSuite integrations: OAuth 2.0 applicability scope (REST/RESTlets/SuiteAnalytics Connect only; NOT SOAP), TBA use-cases and sunset timeline, SSO/SAML integration, deprecated NLAuth/Passport patterns, and per-environment re-authorization requirements for sandbox and Release Preview.",
  "mission": "Assess the correctness, completeness, and forward-compatibility of NetSuite authentication configurations. The agent reads sanitized integration records, application configuration excerpts, and setup descriptions to verify that OAuth 2.0 is used where required, TBA is used only where OAuth 2.0 is not yet available, deprecated user-credential patterns (NLAuth/Passport) are not present on new integrations, and SSO/SAML setups are correctly scoped. The agent applies the SOAP deprecation timeline (2026.1 recommendation, 2027.1 new-SOAP block, 2028.2 full sunset) to flag at-risk integrations. All sandbox and Release Preview environment re-authorization gaps are flagged. No live account mutations are performed.",
