# IlliniHunt Documentation

Index of IlliniHunt documentation for people and for agents: API reference, OpenAPI description, llms.txt, and site background.

Everything IlliniHunt publishes about itself, in one place. If you are an automated agent, start with [llms.txt](/llms.txt) — it states plainly what this site is good for and what it is not.

## For agents

- [llms.txt](/llms.txt) — machine-readable site guide, including a "when to use IlliniHunt" section that names the queries this site can and cannot answer.
- [openapi.json](/openapi.json) — OpenAPI 3.1 description of every public endpoint, with typed parameters, response schemas, and a unique operation id per operation.
- [.well-known/api-catalog](/.well-known/api-catalog) — RFC 9727 link set pointing at the API description, the documentation, and the liveness probe.
- [/api](/api) — a JSON index served from the website host, telling you that the API lives on a different host and where.
- [sitemap.xml](/sitemap.xml) — every crawlable page.

## For developers

- [Developer documentation](/developers) — endpoint reference, worked `curl` examples, pagination, rate limits, error format, and the authentication model.

- [Issue tracker](https://github.com/gies-ai-experiments/illinihunt/issues) — bugs, feature requests, and questions.
