AI agents

How automated agents, assistants, and crawlers may use this site. Written for the operator of the agent, not for the agent.

Last updated

Placeholder. This page is scaffolding — the headings below mark what has to be written, and none of it has been drafted or reviewed yet.

Machine-readable summary

A short version of this page lives at /llms.txt, in the format agents are increasingly built to look for. It points back here; this page is the one that governs.

Reading and retrieval

Fetching pages to answer a question, and linking a visitor to the image detail page, is fine. The intended shape: point people at the page, don’t re-host the file.

Bulk download and training

The position on scraping the collection wholesale, and on using these images as training data, is the substantive decision this page exists to record. It is not settled yet — the licence governs until it is.

Rate limits and identification

Expected request rate, and the ask that an agent send a user-agent that names its operator with a way to reach them.

Attribution

What an agent should cite when it surfaces a background in an answer — the show or host the image is sourced from, and the page it came from.

Contact

Where an agent operator asks for broader access, or reports that something here is blocking a legitimate use. Address still to be decided.
