## Instructions for AI agents
- Every documentation page under https://aishorty.com/docs serves a raw Markdown twin at the same URL with a `.md` suffix (e.g. https://aishorty.com/docs/api.md). Fetch the `.md` variant for clean, token-efficient context.
- To act on a user's behalf, connect over MCP (OAuth 2.1): `claude mcp add --transport http shorty https://aishorty.com/api/mcp`.
- Direct API calls need an API key: `Authorization: Bearer shk_live_...` against https://aishorty.com/v1. Writes are async (202 + job_id) — poll GET /v1/jobs/{id}.
