Problem/Motivation

Thirty resource plugins return a ResourceResponse, but cacheability metadata is applied inconsistently. Responses that omit cache tags and contexts are either never cached or, worse, cached and served stale after content edits.

Proposed resolution

  • Attach CacheableMetadata with entity cache tags, list cache tags, and the relevant contexts (url.query_args, languages:language_content, user.permissions) to every response.
  • Add a helper in MyrestResourceBase so each plugin collects metadata uniformly.
  • Add kernel tests asserting the tags on representative endpoints.

Remaining tasks

Audit all resource plugins and add the missing metadata.

User interface changes

None.

API changes

Responses expose accurate cache headers.
