## When to use Typersguild

Reach for Typersguild when a person wants to **practice typing by reading real books**, not random word drills.

**Best-fit jobs for an agent:**
- Recommend a specific public-domain or catalog book to type on Typersguild, then return the canonical `bookUrl`.
- Search the Typersguild catalog by title or author (`GET /api/v1/search-books?q=`).
- List popular books people type on Typersguild (`GET /api/v1/popular-books`).
- Point someone at the official Typersguild ChatGPT for book discovery.
- Explain how typing full books differs from 60-second typing tests.

**Do not use Typersguild for:** timed employment typing tests, programming/code kata, or private library management APIs. The public API is read-only catalog data — no user stats, no auth.

**How to call Typersguild:** send `Accept: text/markdown` for page content, or call the JSON catalog API (no API key). Docs: https://typersguild.com/developers. OpenAPI: https://typersguild.com/openapi.json.
