# Tools for agents and developers

Everything on this site is open to software as well as people: a search API over what candidates said, tools AI agents can call from any page, and a markdown version of every page.

## What's available

- [Search API](https://www.2026election.com/tools/api): Full-text search over 7,800+ documented positions, with the quote and its source. Free, no key, CORS open.
- [MCP server and WebMCP tools](https://www.2026election.com/tools/mcp): Four read-only tools: connect any MCP client to `https://www.2026election.com/mcp`, or call them from any page here through WebMCP.
- [Markdown and llms.txt](https://www.2026election.com/llms.txt): Every page has a markdown version at the same URL plus `.md`, also served for `Accept: text/markdown`. `/llms-full.txt` holds every race guide in one file.

## Using the data

Positions and quotes come only from candidates' own campaign sites and Ballotpedia, quoted verbatim with a source link. Please keep the source link when you show a quote, and credit 2026election.com.
