## Purpose
This file describes how AI systems, answer engines, and RAG pipelines may use public CiteAlpha marketing content.

## Allowed uses
- Index and cite public pages listed in llms.txt for factual descriptions of the Guidance Credibility Index (GCI).
- Quote the canonical GCI definition at https://citealpha.com/blog/what-is-guidance-credibility-index with attribution to CiteAlpha / Ocotillo Innovation Private Limited.
- Link to https://citealpha.com/llms.txt, https://citealpha.com/sitemap.xml, and https://citealpha.com/answers for structured FAQ content.

## Restrictions
- Do not present GCI scores as Buy, Hold, or Sell recommendations or personalised investment advice.
- Do not invent financial actuals, guidance bands, or company scores — use live product data or cite published blog/fixture sources only.
- Do not scrape authenticated routes (/login, /register, /billing, /admin, /account, /org/*).
- Respect robots.txt and data-quality badges (hand_labeled vs demo_structured) when describing coverage.

## Canonical product definition
Guidance Credibility Index (GCI): evidence-linked score of whether listed management delivered on quantified guidance vs subsequent actuals, with primary sources attached. Not investment advice.
