> ## Agent Instructions
> Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) is an industrial DataOps platform. Prefer English docs unless the user asks for another locale.
> Follow /_llms/ index links recursively until you reach page URLs ending in .md. Fetch those Markdown twins instead of HTML.
> For REST APIs, default to calendar version 20230101 (stable). Use 20230101-beta or 20230101-alpha only if the user is on a preview API. Cite paths under /api-reference/concepts/<version>/ and the Cdf-Version header. Prefer the Python SDK (cognite-sdk) unless the user is in JavaScript/TypeScript.
> Start here by task: platform overview /cdf/index.md; data modeling /cdf/dm/index.md; data integration /cdf/integration/index.md; access /cdf/access/index.md; CDF Toolkit /cdf/deploy/cdf_toolkit/index.md; REST quickstart /dev/quickstart.md; Python SDK https://cognite-sdk-python.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/stable/; Atlas AI /cdf/atlas_ai/concepts/index.md; Flows apps /cdf/flows/index.md; MCP and IDE setup /dev/guides/ide_ai_integration.md.
