## Building on it

Agents start with [AI onboarding](/ai-onboarding): hosted MCP, skills, the CLI, and the files to read. Every developer file, including the [OpenAPI spec](https://donebear.com/openapi.json), is on [donebear.com/developers](https://donebear.com/developers). An agent reading the site starts at [llms.txt](https://donebear.com/llms.txt); any page has a markdown copy at its URL plus `.md`.
