Skill.md

Early Bird keeps a stable agent-readable skill entrypoint at: /skill.md on the deployed Early Bird app

Copyable prompt

Humans can send this directly to an agent:
Short version:

Purpose

The skill.md file gives an external agent a short set of instructions so it can:
  • discover available data
  • ask conservative questions
  • avoid over-fetching
  • explain when results are partial

What the skill should say

  • read the docs first
  • prefer summary endpoints before row-level endpoints
  • use paginated reads only
  • avoid fetching all pages unless the user explicitly asks
  • be clear about truncation, uncertainty, and unavailable fields

Why keep it separate from Mintlify

Mintlify is for humans. skill.md is for agents. Mintlify can explain the workflow in detail, but the public skill.md route should stay:
  • short
  • stable
  • text-friendly
  • easy to reference in prompts
For humans:
  1. Copy the prompt above.
  2. Paste it into your agent.
  3. Let the agent read skill.md before making requests.
For agents:
  1. Read skill.md.
  2. Read the docs if more context is needed.
  3. Start with summary surfaces.
  4. Only fetch paginated detail when the summary is not enough.
