Remarks

Root URIs serve as entry points for resource navigation, typically representing top-level directories or container resources that are relevant to the current session. Roots inform servers which locations the client considers important, providing informational guidance rather than an access-control mechanism. Each root has a URI that uniquely identifies it and optional metadata like a human-readable name.
