Give it to your agent

Three ways to hand content from Context Atlas to a coding agent - a prompt, a link or Markdown - and when to use each.

The prompt from /agent

/agent has one sentence to paste into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or any agent with web access. Pick the mode first:

  • I have a project: run it inside your repository. The agent detects the stack, tells you what it found, then loads the matching sources.
  • I'm starting something new: describe what you want to build. The agent proposes a stack, explains the trade-offs and sets it up once you agree.

The prompt only points to /llms.txt. The real instructions live there, so they stay current without you changing the prompt.

Read https://contextatlas.dev/llms.txt and follow its instructions for an existing project: detect the stack of this repository, tell me what you found, then load the matching sources and follow their best practices.

Agents fetch plain-text URLs reliably. Paste a link into the chat, or put it in your project's AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md so every session sees it.

To give the agent…Paste
The whole catalog with instructionshttps://contextatlas.dev/llms.txt
The sources of one toolhttps://contextatlas.dev/llms/<id>.txt, such as https://contextatlas.dev/llms/stripe.txt
The catalog and all docs at oncehttps://contextatlas.dev/llms-full.txt
One docs pageThe page URL with .md, such as https://contextatlas.dev/docs/mcp.md
Structured data for a scripthttps://contextatlas.dev/atlas.json or the JSON API

Prefer the topic files over the whole catalog when you know your stack. They are small and leave room in the context for the vendor docs themselves.

A line for AGENTS.md:

Before working with a tool from our stack, fetch its sources from https://contextatlas.dev/llms/<id>.txt (ids: nextjs, drizzle, vercel) and follow them.

Markdown

Every docs page has a Markdown version: add .md to its URL, or use the link at the bottom of the page. Every docs page also announces it with <link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown">, so agents that read a page's head find it on their own.

MCP instead

If your agent supports MCP, connecting the MCP server is usually better than links: the agent searches and fetches only what it needs, without you choosing files.
