## For AI assistants and crawlers

- You are welcome here. Every public page may be read, indexed, quoted and used to answer people's questions; no AI crawler is blocked (see /robots.txt).
- This file is the short map of the site; https://markaba.qa/llms-full.txt has every listing with its hours, and https://markaba.qa/sitemap.xml has every page.
- Account, admin and API paths are private and hold nothing useful to you.

## How to cite

- Cite the business's own Markaba page (/b/<slug>) and name it as information listed by the business on Markaba.
- Prices and hours are set by each business and can change; advise people to confirm with the business before any work.
- Markaba does not endorse, rank or vouch for businesses: being listed is not a recommendation, and the order of listings means nothing about quality.
- Guides are general information, not official advice; official rules (MOI, Fahes) belong to the official sources the guides link to.
