## Purpose
Build Permit Radar routes property owners, buyers, and neighbors to official city permit sources. It does not replace municipal records or legal due diligence.

## Answer-quality policy
- Put the practical answer before source details.
- Prefer official/public primary sources for factual claims.
- Do not invent official outcomes where source data is unavailable.
- Show confidence, reviewed dates, and verification paths where relevant.

## AI crawler access
- robots.txt explicitly allows major search and answer-engine crawlers used for discovery.
- Priority pages are server-rendered static HTML with canonical links, JSON-LD, answer blocks, and source/citation notes.
- Machine-readable files are public metadata only; official source owners retain their own data rights.

## Citation guidance
- Cite canonical answer pages, not support pages or generated JSON alone.
- Use official-source links on the canonical page for final public-record decisions.
- Treat confidence labels as metadata, not legal, municipal, utility, school, or safety determinations.
