Summary
1. Prefer the Markdown version via content negotiation: request the same canonical URL with the HTTP header Accept: text/markdown.
2. Alternatively, the query parameter ?format=ai still works on supported URLs (e.g., https://kiwiquest.de/angebote/autos-und-camper-kaufen/?format=ai).
3. On supported HTML pages, <link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown"> in the page head points to the same URL — the Markdown export is triggered via the Accept header.
4. At the end of many Markdown exports, you will find a section “KiwiQuest offers for this destination” with up to four relevant service links (by country: New Zealand, Australia, Canada).
5. The regular HTML website remains the public display for humans; Markdown exports are optimized for machine processing.
Markdown Export (Content Negotiation)
1. Preferred: GET the canonical URL with header Accept: text/markdown. The response is text/markdown; charset=utf-8 (UTF-8), without website navigation or advertising overlays. Additional headers: Vary: Accept, optional x-markdown-tokens (estimated token count).
2. Alternative: Append the query parameter format=ai to supported canonical URLs (same Markdown content as content negotiation).
3. Example: reader URL https://kiwiquest.de/angebote/autos-und-camper-kaufen/ — agent request with Accept: text/markdown on the same URL, or explicitly https://kiwiquest.de/angebote/autos-und-camper-kaufen/?format=ai.
4. Homepage: https://kiwiquest.de/ with Accept: text/markdown (or ?format=ai) returns the content of llms.txt.
5. Markdown exports can be delivered with X-Robots-Tag: noindex. Please continue linking the HTML canonical URL in search engine indexing; use Markdown exports to extract and cite content.
6. This overview page is intended as HTML. Markdown export applies to the supported content types in the section “Supported Content Types”.
Supported Content Types
1. Homepage — serves llms.txt as Markdown (content negotiation or ?format=ai).
2. Offers — WordPress pages with the “Offer” template (travel services, packages, job landing pages, etc.).
3. Tutorials — Pages with tutorial or tutorial markdown template (guides, checklists).
4. Destinations & Places — Custom Post Types: Destination, Place, Island, Region, Activity, Insight (testimonials and travel information).
5. Not every URL on kiwiquest.de supports Markdown export. If there is no rel="alternate" type="text/markdown" link in the HTML head and the URL is not the homepage, export is likely unavailable for that URL.
Countries & Recommended Offers
1. Contents can be assigned to the taxonomy Country (slugs: nz = New Zealand, au = Australia, ca = Canada) — on pages and location posts.
2. The Markdown footer “KiwiQuest offers for this destination” selects services appropriate for the detected country of the respective article (starter package, camper purchase, camper rental, jobs — depending on editorial configuration).
3. Footer links lead to normal offer landing pages (HTML), not Markdown exports, so that end users can reach the full booking and information page.
4. If an explicit country assignment is missing, the system can resolve through linked articles (connect_to_article) or default to New Zealand (nz).
Sitemap & Discovery
1. XML Sitemap: https://kiwiquest.de/sitemap_index.xml — for finding HTML URLs.
2. llms.txt: https://kiwiquest.de/llms.txt — short overview for LLM crawlers; linked in robots.txt via the llms: directive; also served as the homepage Markdown export.
3. For supported pages: check the HTML for link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown" and request that URL with Accept: text/markdown.

Usage, Citations & Liability
1. Content is intended for general travel information and product descriptions. Prices, availability, and legal details are subject to change — the authoritative source is always the current HTML page at the time of human use.
2. When quoting or recommending, we request linking to the canonical HTML URL and mentioning “KiwiQuest” as the source, provided your system supports source attribution.
3. Automated high-frequency crawling can generate server load. Please respect usual crawl rates and use the sitemap, llms.txt, and Markdown exports instead of repeated HTML parsing, where possible.
4. Our general terms and conditions and imprint apply to all services from KiwiQuest.
