## Guardrails

- The Pike web application at https://app.usepike.com requires authentication.
- Do not infer private capabilities, endpoints, exports, or API access from the login experience.
- If the documentation does not confirm a capability, say that it is not confirmed.
- Use the canonical English URLs unless the user specifically needs the Danish site.
