x-stainless-renameMap
`x-stainless-renameMap` appears on schema objects and properties. Its value is a structured object. Used by 2 providers across 2 OpenAPI documents. It sits in the `x-stainless-` namespace, so its meaning is defined by stainless tooling rather than by OpenAPI. Consistent with naming & aliasing — 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.
