Use these docs with AI

Copy a guide, give your assistant the documentation index, or read the complete public context.

Source reviewed Engineering documentation

Ask about one guide

Use Copy Markdown above any page and paste it into your assistant with your question. This includes the guide's title, source-review date, text, links and screenshots as Markdown references.

For a published page, Open includes shortcuts to ChatGPT and Claude. Those shortcuts ask the service to read the page; they do not run a BeforeMay model. The service may require you to sign in and may not be able to fetch the page. A localhost preview is only accessible on your computer: copy its Markdown instead of asking an external service to open that address.

Provide broader context

ExportUse
Documentation indexTitles, descriptions and the Markdown link for each guide. An assistant can select the relevant pages.
Full documentationAll public guides together, with their source-review dates. Use as a file or pasted context when your tool supports it.

These exports are generated from the same pages as the website. They do not contain client files, practice API keys or internal review-evidence records. The files live under /docs because the main website has its own llms.txt.

A useful question

Using only the attached BeforeMay guide, explain how I prepare and test an
engagement letter. Cite the relevant sections. If the guide does not explain
something, say what is missing instead of inventing an action or button.

Check the answer against the linked guide and the actual screen. An assistant's summary does not complete a signature, an identity check or an accountant's review. Ask for clarification when it proposes a step absent from the guide.

Do not add client documents, TFNs, personal request links or credentials to a documentation question. Any information you type into an outside assistant is handled by that service; it does not pass through Workpapers' outbound controls.

Site search and in-site chat

The website's Search finds guide titles and passages locally using a prebuilt index. It does not generate answers. The published documentation does not currently include a BeforeMay-hosted AI chat.

For a software integration that reads practice data or starts work, use the Workpapers MCP interface. The documentation exports are public reading material, not credentials or permission to operate the product.
