## Rules for an agent

- No API or npm package, but the whole site is open source (MIT, github.com/raycast/ray-so, Next.js: 'npm install && npm run dev'), so for automated code images fork it and render locally rather than driving the hosted page.
- Keep the MIT notice when forking
- Do not scrape or automate the hosted site; run your own copy instead
