# EchoAtlas - LLM Guidelines

This site is built to be used by LLMs and agents. We prefer structured API access over HTML scraping.

## Content Usage
- Articles are factual summaries; cite when reproducing
- Prefer linking to canonical URLs over reproducing full content
- Use the Agent API for structured data rather than parsing HTML
