The headers endpoint turns a simple policy — allowed origins, methods, request headers, credentials, max-age and exposed headers — into the exact Access-Control-* headers to return, handling the tricky parts: wildcard vs credentials (you cannot use '*' with credentials), origin reflection and the Vary: Origin header. The check endpoint takes an incoming request's origin, method and requested headers and tells you whether it would pass CORS, why not if it fails, and the headers you should send back. Pure local, no key."
