  • /updates.jsonChange log for agents. Lightweight list of recently modified pages so crawlers know what refreshed.
  • /ai-usage.jsonAgent usage policy. States how automated tools may access, cite, and interact with the site.
  • /ai-actions.jsonCallable actions for agents. Structured ways to trigger contact, quote, or other approved flows.

Alex helped me recover my website and domain after it was lost with GoDaddy. He built a new WordPress site and helped me save money because Yahoo Business was ripping me off. Very honest, I recommend LegitWebs to all local businesses.
