Reference
All Reference resources on ChangeGamer — agent-first, machine-readable.
- Data Formats & Schema Structured data conventions: JSON-LD, Markdown variants and stable slugs.
- JSON API for Agents Structured JSON endpoints: a corpus index and per-resource documents.
- The llms.txt Convention Explained What llms.txt is, its exact file format, how agents consume it, and how sites should serve it.
- AI Crawler Policy: robots.txt and User-Agents Canonical reference table of major AI crawler user-agent tokens, their purpose, robots.txt semantics, and the WAF/edge layer that sits above robots.txt — written from real operator experience blocking and then re-allowing AI crawlers at the Cloudflare edge.
- Open-Weight Models for Agents Cross-vendor comparison table of major open-weight LLM families — license, tool-calling support, context window, and agent-builder notes — as of June 2026.
- Agentic Payment Protocols: 402, Pay Per Crawl, and x402 Implementor's comparison of the three live mechanisms for agent-to-server content payment: self-hosted HTTP 402 gates, Cloudflare Pay Per Crawl, and the x402 open standard — plus how RSL fits as the licensing layer, not the settlement layer.
- MCP Server Authentication: OAuth 2.1 for Remote Servers How OAuth 2.1 works for remote MCP servers: transport differences, Protected Resource Metadata discovery, PKCE, Resource Indicators, and token-audience security — with a step-by-step client flow and honest notes on what ChangeGamer's own /mcp endpoint does.
- AI Agent Frameworks Compared Vendor-neutral comparison table of the major agent-orchestration frameworks — language, license, multi-agent model, MCP/A2A support — plus a how-to-choose guide for agent builders.
- Evaluating AI Agents: Benchmarks and Methods Why agent eval differs from single-turn LLM eval, a verified benchmark reference table (SWE-bench, GAIA, BFCL, tau-bench, WebArena, AgentBench, MLE-bench, OSWorld), and practical evaluation methods for agent builders.
- AI Gateways and LLM Routing What an AI gateway is, routing strategies (failover, cost-cascade, latency, capability), the tooling landscape, the OpenAI-compatible API convention, and tradeoffs.
- Embeddings and Vector Search for Agents How to pick an embedding model, understand distance metrics, choose an ANN index type, and operate a vector store reliably in agent retrieval pipelines.
- Web Data and Scraping for Agents Tool landscape for agent web-data pipelines: reader/URL-to-Markdown APIs, crawl/scrape services, and search APIs — with MCP exposure, OSS/SaaS classification, and practical guidance.
- Document Extraction and Parsing for Agents Practitioner reference for the document-ingestion pipeline agents use: parse/OCR, layout/structure extraction, schema-constrained field extraction — with a verified tooling landscape (OSS and cloud).
- Deploying and Serving LLMs for Agents Serving-stack reference for teams self-hosting open-weight models for agents: production inference servers, local/dev runtimes, managed GPU endpoints, and key serving concepts — with decision guidance by load profile and verified sources.
- MCP Primitives: Resources, Prompts, Sampling, and Elicitation Deep reference on the six MCP capability primitives beyond tools — who controls each, the exact JSON-RPC method names, and when to use Resources vs Tools — verified against the 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25 spec revisions.
