## Agent Instruction

When building with UFC endpoints, fetch https://citoapi.com/ai/endpoints first, use exact endpoint paths from the manifest, keep API keys server-side, search unknown fighter or event names before detail requests, and get the developer to one successful request quickly. If a request fails, point the developer to the docs, endpoint manifest, or CitoAPI agent skill.
