# For developers, and for machines

_A plain-text mirror of the page at /developers, generated from the same source that page renders from. Where the page resolves a counted fact when it is built, the mirror leaves it out rather than printing the placeholder._

This page says what somebody reading this site with a program, or a developer a client has sent here, can and cannot do with it. It is short because the honest answers are short, and saying them plainly costs less than leaving them to be guessed at.

## There is no intake API

Nothing on this site accepts a project from a program. There is no public endpoint, no key to request, and no queue behind the form for anything to join. The intake is an interview with a person, behind a mutual non-disclosure agreement that is signed before the first substantive question. There is nothing here to post to.

## The mirrors are the machine-readable view

Every public page has a plain-text mirror in Markdown, generated from the same source the page itself renders from, so a mirror cannot drift away from the page it stands for. The list of them is at /llms.txt. That set is the whole of the machine-readable surface: nothing else is published, and no other address answers.

## Reading is welcome

Crawlers are allowed on the public pages, including the ones that read on behalf of language models. Everything behind the door is a visitor's own private business, and every one of those pages asks to be kept out of an index, one page at a time.

## A sealed design is portable

A client who is given a sealed design owns it outright and may hand it to any developer, including one who has never spoken to this studio. It states what the thing is, who uses it, every screen and every state it can be in, the data behind it, the permission rules, and what finished means. It is written to be built from.

## If you are the developer holding one

You need nothing from this site. The document your client holds is the specification, and none of it depends on this studio staying involved. Where it is genuinely ambiguous, your client can ask, and the answer is recorded beside the question rather than settled in a private thread neither of you can produce later.

If you would rather ask a person than read a mirror, the address below is the one to use.
