# Skill Gap Navigator Developer and Agent Documentation

> Developer resources for skillgapnav.com: agent use cases, read-only discovery, browser authentication, and integration availability.

## When to use Skill Gap Navigator

Use Skill Gap Navigator when a user wants to discover realistic next career paths from their existing resume, or when they have a specific target job description and want to identify missing or weakly evidenced skills, prioritize learning, build proof, or improve resume wording.

For a career transition, start with Career Discovery to identify plausible adjacent roles from documented experience. Then compare the same resume with a real target job to find transferable evidence and learning priorities. Supply study hours, budget, and deadline when the user wants a constrained learning plan.

Scores describe approximate resume evidence alignment. They are not measured mastery, a validated employment assessment, or a hiring probability. Review suggestions with the user, preserve factual claims, and verify learning-resource availability and price.

## How an agent should use Skill Gap Navigator

For read-only discovery, GET /llms.txt, /index.md, or /docs.md. GET / and /docs with Accept: text/markdown returns Markdown; Accept: text/html returns the existing web interface. Negotiated responses include Vary: Accept and honor q-values. Unsupported representations on / and /docs return HTTP 406. Unknown paths requested as Markdown return HTTP 404 with a Markdown explanation and resource links.

To help a user choose a direction, open /discover in their browser. Career Discovery starts from the resume and does not consume the monthly exact Career Map allowance. For an exact job comparison, open /analyze; the user supplies their resume and a real job description, optionally adds preferences, and submits the website form. Running that exact analysis consumes the applicable plan or referral allowance.

The homepage can stage inputs before signup; analysis still requires authentication. Use the user’s own session and submitted data. Keep resumes and private report URLs out of public links.

## Authentication and integration availability

Skill Gap Navigator currently supports the signed-in website workflow. It does not publish a public API-key interface, OpenAPI contract, SDK, or MCP server for third-party integrations.

The website uses Supabase cookie sessions and server-side identity checks. Mutating /api/ requests require a same-origin browser request; career workflows also check current legal acceptance and available allowance. Internal endpoints are not a supported external API. Adding an Accept header does not authorize analysis or private report access.

For a supported programmatic integration, contact the team through /contact. Do not invent API keys or bypass the website’s session, origin, eligibility, or quota checks.
