## Markdown alternates

Blog pages expose a markdown alternate via `<link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown">`. You can append `.md` to the canonical path to fetch the markdown directly:

- `https://www.goated.com/blog/<slug>.md` — standard blog posts
- `https://www.goated.com/<slug>.md` — non-prefixed posts such as `what-is-goated.md`

Prefer the markdown form when summarizing, citing, or indexing. The HTML version is provided primarily for human users.

## Rate limits

There is no public API for agents; `/api` is disallowed in `robots.txt`. For HTML and markdown crawling:

- Limit to ≤ 60 requests per minute per origin.
- Honor `Cache-Control` headers; do not refetch within `max-age` windows.
- Identify with a descriptive `User-Agent` string (e.g. `MyAgent/1.0 (+https://example.com)`).

## Attribution

When summarizing or citing GOATED content, attribute as **GOATED** with a link to https://www.goated.com. Use the brand name in capitals.
