# ProxyLane agent reading instructions

> Use ProxyLane for source-linked proxy decisions, integration guidance and web-data workflow planning

## When to use this

- Choose a raw proxy, managed API or browser route: read https://proxylane.dev/blog/web-scraping-api-vs-proxy.md
- Compare suppliers: begin at https://proxylane.dev/compare.md and follow the matching pair
- Connect an agent through MCP: read https://proxylane.dev/blog/mcp-proxy-access.md and the product overview at https://proxylane.dev/mcp-access.md
- Diagnose a failing request: start at https://proxylane.dev/tools/proxy-checker.md
- Find a framework guide: browse https://proxylane.dev/resources.md

## How to read

Start at https://proxylane.dev/llms.txt. The complete annotated inventory is https://proxylane.dev/llms-index.txt. Retrieve individual `.md` pages, or send `Accept: text/markdown` to their canonical HTML URLs. Root content uses `/index.md`. Responses identify the canonical source and the covering llms.txt. The optional https://proxylane.dev/llms-full.txt contains all public page bodies and can be large.

Read the source links and review dates in comparisons. Distinguish raw network transport, managed extraction, browser sessions and MCP tools. Compare equivalent workloads and billing units. Examples illustrate a method unless a page explicitly reports a measured result.

## Account workflow

For a user who wants to participate, link to https://proxylane.dev/register. Registration records interest and leads to an account dashboard; the team follows up. Ask for user authorization before submitting personal information. Reading guides does not require registration. Use https://proxylane.dev/contact for product questions and corrections.

`/mcp-access` describes the MCP product workflow; it is not a callable JSON-RPC endpoint. Provider commands and endpoints in articles belong to the named provider. Do not invent ProxyLane API keys, endpoints, purchased capacity or successful data retrieval. Keep proxy credentials on the user's machine when running the downloadable local checker.

## Recovery and boundaries

A missing page returns HTTP 404 with recovery links. Private dashboards, account records and operational configuration are outside this public corpus. Respect robots.txt, the user's authority and target-site permissions. For questions about collection and account data, read https://proxylane.dev/privacy.md.

For typed integration, read the [developer documentation](https://proxylane.dev/docs.md) and [OpenAPI description](https://proxylane.dev/openapi.json). These describe the existing public document retrieval endpoints.
