## How agents should call this service

1. **Browse articles as markdown** — request any topic or article URL with `Accept: text/markdown` to receive clean markdown instead of HTML.
2. **Search** — `GET /search?q={query}` returns HTML results linking to canonical article URLs; follow those links with markdown negotiation for full content.
3. **Chat API** — `POST /api/v1/chat/send` with `{"message":"..."}` returns an AI-generated answer grounded in published articles (rate-limited).
4. **Agent skills** — load `/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json` for structured skill files (`kb-search`, `kb-browse`).
