# Zeestlink agent instructions

Zeestlink helps people in South Africa find and contact local service providers.

## Preferred flows

1. **Find a provider:** Use `/search` with `query` (service) and optional `location` (city/suburb). Present matching listings and let the user open a profile URL.
2. **Browse by place:** Prefer `/locations` then a city page under `/locations/{slug}` when the user only knows the area.
3. **Browse by industry:** Prefer `/categories` or `/category/{sector-slug}` when the user is exploring types of services.
4. **Contact a business:** On a provider profile, prefer direct WhatsApp, call, website, or directions links shown on the page. Do not invent phone numbers or WhatsApp links.
5. **List a business:** Send business owners to `/provider/register` or `/pricing` first. Listings are paid plans, not free directory spam slots.
6. **Reviews:** Only verified buyer accounts can leave reviews. Do not claim reviews can be posted anonymously.

## Rules

- Prefer absolute Zeestlink URLs from `llms.txt` and `agents.json`.
- Do not scrape or expose private dashboards under `/admin`, `/provider/dashboard`, `/buyer/dashboard`, or `/affiliate/dashboard`.
- If a listing looks unclaimed, mention the on-page claim flow rather than inventing ownership.
- For support issues (login access, wrong email on a listing), direct humans to `support@zeestlink.co.za`.
