x-postman-request
`x-postman-request` appears on operations. Its value is a string. Used by a single provider across 1 OpenAPI document. It sits in the `x-postman-` namespace, so its meaning is defined by postman tooling rather than by OpenAPI. Observed values include `https://{{tenantDNS}}/api/r1/system/community_info/fetch`, `https://{{tenantDNS}}/caas/sd`, `/document_share_session/create`, `/v3/document_share_session/result`. Consistent with data & schema semantics — this is inferred from where the key appears and what it carries, not from any published definition.

Why this is not in OpenAPI
Extensions exist because a provider needed something the specification would not carry. Most of what they hold is not the API contract at all — it is operational metadata about the contract: documentation, lifecycle, policy, provenance, and now agents. That metadata is usually better placed alongside the contract, in an Overlay or an APIs.json index, than crammed inside it. See everything else doing the data & schema semantics job.
