# Connect an agent to Canooq

Use the agent index, Markdown pages, sitemap, feeds and public MCP service to find and use Canooq resources.

## Choose the next destination

Start at the agent index for supported Markdown pages and the sitemap for the complete published URL inventory. Markdown is for reading and navigation. Use HTML for interactive controls, downloads, comparisons and pages without a Markdown representation.

For clients that support remote MCP over HTTP, connect to https://mcp.canooq.ca/mcp. Initialize the connection, discover tools with tools/list and load get_finance_workflow before a Canadian money workflow. Use the returned schemas and the user's actual inputs. This endpoint uses POST; opening it with a browser GET is not an availability test.

Read calculator input requirements before calling an exposed tool. A tool's presence on the website does not establish that it is exposed over MCP: tools/list is the capability inventory. Use HTML for a website feature absent from that inventory.

## How to read Canooq

- Start at the most specific Canooq page for the user's task; use the sitemap or the links below when the route is unknown.

- Request `Accept: text/markdown` on the homepage or a supported canonical URL to receive Markdown at the same URL. Check the response Content-Type: unsupported pages may still return HTML. Request `Accept: text/html` to read the published interface.

- Use the explicit Markdown alternatives listed in the agent index. The homepage alternative is https://www.canooq.ca/markdown; supported inner pages use `/markdown` followed by their canonical path. Do not assume an unlisted path has a Markdown version.

- Navigation Markdown explains what a section does and links onward. Individual guides provide the answer; calculator Markdown describes inputs and assumptions; template Markdown describes fields and document blocks. For a page without Markdown, read its HTML. Follow public hub links or https://www.canooq.ca/sitemap.xml to discover article, offer, card, destination and other detail URLs rather than inventing slugs.

- Use HTML for interactive forms, filters, personalized results and supported file downloads. Reading Markdown does not run a calculator, complete a template, apply for a benefit or submit a claim. Ask for missing required inputs and never present defaults as the user's result.

- For execution through MCP, connect a compatible client to https://mcp.canooq.ca/mcp, initialize, discover tools with tools/list and load get_finance_workflow. Follow the returned schemas and supply the user's actual inputs. Website features are available over MCP only when exposed in that tool inventory. See https://www.canooq.ca/developers for connection details.

- Cite the canonical Canooq URL shown in the Markdown frontmatter, keep the linked primary sources with consequential claims, and distinguish the page's review date from the date you accessed it. A navigation page or catalog is not a live provider quote or a new source verification.

- Preserve the page's source links, effective dates, eligibility rules, and offer deadlines when answering. For time-sensitive facts, verify the linked primary source before presenting the result as current.

- On HTTP 404, return to https://www.canooq.ca/llms.txt or https://www.canooq.ca/sitemap.xml to find the current destination. On HTTP 503, respect Retry-After if supplied and use the canonical HTML page or linked source in the meantime; an unavailable representation is not an empty article. On HTTP 406, request a supported media type such as text/html or text/markdown. A blocked response is not permission to bypass access controls.
