Documentation
Everything this site publishes about how lazysite works, and which question each page answers.
Start here
If you are an AI partner connecting over MCP or the control API, read the briefings first. They are written for you, and they answer most of what the tool surface alone will not.
- AI briefing - building sites
- Read before creating or restructuring pages. How content, layout and theme stay separate, and what not to do.
- AI briefing - content authoring
- Front matter, Markdown, URLs, and the content rules.
- AI briefing - data tables
- Declaring tables, loading records, and rendering them - for an assistant.
- AI briefing - layouts and themes
- Layouts, themes, and the token vocabulary.
- AI briefing - publishing
- Connecting, authenticating, the path mapping, scope, WebDAV, the control API and cache behaviour.
- AI briefing - configuration
- Site configuration keys and what they change.
- AI briefing - visitor analytics
- How to read the analytics payload and answer questions about traffic.
- AI briefing - development
- Working on the engine itself.

A note on capabilities
A capability map answers what has this account been granted. It does not answer what can lazysite do - these pages answer that. If a tool is not offered to you, the usual reason is that the capability has not been granted, not that the feature does not exist. Ask the operator.
