Full guide: https://numap.app/llms.txt . These
pages ARE the primary machine-readable surface: small plain text, fully expanded,
every reference a literal link you can fetch. Directories: https://numap.app/data/courses
(a page per subject and per course, pattern https://numap.app/data/courses/{SUBJECT}/{NUMBER}),
https://numap.app/data/majors, https://numap.app/data/minors,
https://numap.app/data/graduate,
https://numap.app/data/nupath, https://numap.app/data/professors,
https://numap.app/data/equivalences.
Structured JSON (developer API): https://numap.app/data/json/index.json lists every
file; all course titles in one file: https://numap.app/data/json/courses/titles.json.
If your fetch tool refuses URLs found on this page (claude.ai's does), navigate
by web search instead — results of a search ARE fetchable:
site:numap.app/data <subject, course, professor, or program name>.
Or ask the user to paste the exact URL you need as their next message.
