## For AI agents

Every page supports content negotiation on its human URL:
- JSON API: append `?format=json` or send `Accept: application/json`
- JSON-LD: append `?format=ldjson` or send `Accept: application/ld+json`
- Markdown: append `?format=md` or send `Accept: text/markdown`
- Per-page API: https://cursor.thally.app/api/docs/{page-id}
- Search API: https://cursor.thally.app/api/search?q={query}
- Capability manifest (skill): https://cursor.thally.app/skill.md
- Agent guidance (editing these docs): https://cursor.thally.app/AGENTS.md
- MCP server (attach docs as native tools): https://cursor.thally.app/api/mcp
- Agent readiness: https://cursor.thally.app/api/agent-readiness

### Recommended workflow

1. Use this index, the search API, or `search_sections` / `search_docs` before choosing a page.
2. Read the smallest set of relevant pages and follow their prerequisite links.
3. Treat the published docs as the source of truth. Label inferences and say when evidence is missing.
4. Cite the canonical human page URLs, not only API endpoints.
5. Use `/AGENTS.md` before editing a repository. The public MCP server is read-only.

## Cursor Guide

### Start here

- [Introduction to Cursor](https://cursor.thally.app/): Learn what Cursor is, who this independent guide is for, and what you will accomplish with it.
- [Make your first reviewed change](https://cursor.thally.app/quickstart): Use Cursor Agent to understand a project, make one focused change, review the diff, and verify the result.

### Practical guides

- [Add a project rule](https://cursor.thally.app/guides/project-rules): Give Cursor Agent reusable, version-controlled instructions for work in a specific project.
