Abdessamad Derraz a7a27028ab feat: give assistants each page as markdown
The build writes <page>/index.md beside each page, named in its head,
and llms-full.txt. llms.txt and the setup skill say how to answer from
the site, not from memory, and the setup_bios_files WebMCP tool gives a
setup's folder and exact file names from the picker data.

// agent browsing the site can ask it directly, instead of reading pages.
// Each tool reads the JSON the site already publishes (api/v1/) or its
// search index, changes nothing and sends nothing anywhere else. A browser
// without WebMCP skips the whole file.
