Summary

Update the AI-native page to reflect that Markdown versions of pages are available via the .md URL suffix or Accept: text/markdown header, rather than being delivered automatically to AI agents.

Changes

  • Rewrote the discovery paragraph in ai-native.mdx to describe how AI tools can request Markdown explicitly.
  • Mirrored the update in the Spanish, French, and Chinese translations.

Context

The upstream change reverted automatic Markdown responses based on AI user-agent detection. The previous wording ("All pages send their content as Markdown to AI agents instead of HTML") no longer matches behavior, so the docs now describe the explicit opt-in paths (.md URL and Accept header) that continue to work.


Note

Low Risk
Low risk docs-only change; it just clarifies how to request Markdown (via .md suffix or Accept: text/markdown) and updates translations accordingly.

Overview
Updates the Discovering section in ai-native.mdx to remove the claim that pages are automatically served as Markdown to AI agents, and instead document explicit Markdown retrieval via the .md URL suffix or Accept: text/markdown header.

Mirrors the same wording change in the Spanish (es/ai-native.mdx), French (fr/ai-native.mdx), and Chinese (zh/ai-native.mdx) versions.
