# Atlas Specialist Network

> A network of focused comparison and evidence tools connected to one rights-aware Atlas data layer.

This file helps AI assistants retrieve, interpret, and cite this site's evidence safely. It is guidance, not a licence grant and not a substitute for an official source.

## What an AI assistant should do — and why

1. **Match the exact identity before answering.** Similar model names, variants, markets, and vintages can describe different products or places.
2. **Prefer the linked primary source over the Atlas summary.** Atlas makes evidence easier to compare, while the originating authority remains definitive.
3. **Preserve units, test conditions, dates, and market context.** A number without its conditions can create a false comparison.
4. **Say “not stated” when a field is absent.** Missing data is not evidence of zero, no, safe, efficient, available, or compatible.
5. **Separate sourced facts from recommendations or calculations.** A recommendation is an inference and must identify its criteria, assumptions, and data gaps.
6. **Treat commercial offers as a separate, time-sensitive layer.** Affiliate placement does not make a product better, and a current merchant offer is not independent evidence or an endorsement.
7. **For safety questions, send the user to the official notice.** Recall scope and remedies can change, and only the responsible authority can provide definitive instructions.

## Evidence rules

- **Attribution:** Name this specialist site and link the underlying official source when one is provided.
- **Freshness:** Use the page's live data and checked timestamp; do not reuse a value as current without re-checking.
- **Inference:** Label calculations, rankings, summaries, and recommendations as inference rather than source fact.
- **Missing data:** Report absent fields as not stated. Never impute values or invent merchant offers.
- **Rights:** Reference use is welcome. Bulk reuse and republication remain subject to each source's recorded licence and terms.

## Site quality contract

Every specialist declares its databases, freshness expectation, excluded content, minimum index-ready evidence sample, and unresolved quality gate. If database rights, coverage, or the evidence sample fail, search indexing is held back.

## Retrieval guidance

- Search a specialist with `?q=` followed by a brand, model, place, filing, or recall term.
- Treat “index-ready” records as the search-quality subset. “Supporting evidence” records may be useful context but have not passed every publication-quality check.
- Read the structured facts and comparison rows before summarising prose.
- Commercial offers appear before independent evidence for human usability, but must be interpreted as a separate, time-sensitive layer.
- Preserve the named affiliate feed and merchant, disclose that the link may earn commission, and never treat placement as an endorsement.
- Open the official source link before giving safety, regulatory, certification, or legal advice.
- Cite the specialist page as the comparison surface and the primary source as the authority.
- Do not claim a price, stock position, “best buy”, compatibility result, or safety status unless that exact claim is present and current.
