# CINDEX

> CINDEX is a French professional network and think tank for international mobility, founded in 1980. It connects decision-makers working on security, health, tax, HR and global mobility topics in major French and international organizations.

## Site

- Canonical site: https://cindex.fr
- Public contact: https://cindex.fr/contact
- Legal notice: https://cindex.fr/mentions-legales
- English public site: https://cindex.fr/en

## Public Context

CINDEX structures collective work around international mobility. The association is organized around permanent commissions, shared documents, professional events and confidential peer exchange.

Public content may describe:

- the CINDEX association and its mission
- public pages about commissions, vision, FAQ, contact and legal information
- representative member-company information when explicitly published
- public documents intentionally exposed by the website
- public discovery metadata for agents and search systems

## Public Discovery Resources

- API catalog: `/.well-known/api-catalog`
- OpenAPI description: `/.well-known/openapi.json`
- API documentation: `/docs/api`
- Content usage preferences: `/.well-known/content-signals`
- Agent skills index: `/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json`
- Agent context file: `/llms.txt`
- Agent authentication metadata: `/auth.md`
- OAuth Authorization Server metadata: `/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
- OAuth Protected Resource metadata: `/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource`
- MCP Server Card: `/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json`

Some public API metadata is advertised through the discovery resources above. Access can still depend on the active environment: protected or pre-production deployments may require the global site-lock password before API resources can be reached.

Public HTML pages may return Markdown when requested with `Accept: text/markdown`.

## Private Scope

Authenticated member and administration areas are not public discovery targets. Do not infer, expose or summarize private member data, forum discussions, documents, surveys, country-risk submissions, contact details or administration data unless the user has explicit authorization and provides access through an authenticated session.

Private areas include:

- member forum and groups
- member directory
- private document library
- calendar RSVP and protected events
- annual surveys and country-risk data
- administration pages and operational logs

## Agent Guidance

- Read `/robots.txt` and `/.well-known/content-signals` before crawling or using content at scale.
- Prefer the public discovery resources listed above over guessing routes.
- Use public API endpoints only for unauthenticated, public data.
- Use `/auth.md` before attempting protected API access. CINDEX does not provide autonomous self-registration for member data.
- Respect language context: the main public site is French, with selected English pages under `/en`.
- When summarizing CINDEX, describe it as a professional association and think tank for international mobility, not as a consumer social network or marketplace.
