WIRED API endpoint
Lists every WIRED section accepted by /wired/headlines, with its slug, display name, and landing-page URL. This is the full public, RSS-backed section taxonomy -- see the endpoint markdown for the one primary-nav link (Big Story) that is excluded and why.
/wired/sectionsReturns the WIRED section slugs accepted by wired-headlines: business, culture, gear, politics, science, security. These are WIRED's full public, RSS-backed section taxonomy, live-verified against the primary navigation on wired.com and wired.com/sitemap/.
big-story is a primary-navigation link on wired.com but is intentionally excluded: it is a curated homepage rail (its own RSS feed 404s as "Not Found"), not a section with its own listing.
