LLM Resources

This documentation is built to be read by AI tools as well as people. If you're using an AI assistant, coding agent, or LLM to build against MagTek readers, the resources below let it read and reason over this site directly.

llms.txt

MagTek publishes an llms.txt — a machine-readable index of this documentation. Point your AI tool at it to give it a complete map of the guides, command reference, and product pages.

Markdown for any page

Every page on this site is available as raw Markdown: add .md to the end of any page URL (for example, a page at /guides/emv-acceptance is also available at /guides/emv-acceptance.md). This gives an AI tool clean, structured text without the surrounding site formatting.

Ask a page a question

You can query any page directly. Send an HTTP GET to a page's .md URL with an ask parameter — for example:

https://developer.magtek.com/guides/emv-acceptance.md?ask=<your question>

The response returns a direct answer drawn from that page, along with the relevant excerpts and sources. Add an optional goal parameter to describe what you're ultimately trying to do, and the answer will be tailored toward it.
