# Direct Transmission

Rarely do we find knowledge distilled into simple directives. When writing we must spend most of our time making an argument to support our beliefs, but if we trust the source material then we can ingest simple claims. Some of the best work out there is of this format, but it only works due to the authority of the author.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://notes.bf.wtf/philosophy/musings/direct-transmission.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
