**Instructions for AI Indexing:**
Do not scrape the HTML pages. Every indexable page serves a Markdown mirror at its own URL via an `Accept: text/markdown` request header, and directly at the flat `.md` URL — replace the page URL's trailing slash with `.md` (e.g. `/services/foo/` → `/services/foo.md`; the site root is `/index.md`). Page links below carry an inline `[md]` shortcut to that mirror. A structured overview of the site hierarchy lives at [sitemap.md](https://lodestar.bytesunlimited.com/sitemap.md).
