Every episode exposes machine-readable representations by appending a pseudo
file-extension to its URL. Any client that knows an episode URL can mechanically
derive every representation by appending a suffix — there is no separate API to
document or version.

## Episode representations

Append one of these suffixes to any episode URL (for example,
https://pythonbytes.fm/episodes/show/484/all-our-tools.md):

- `.md` — Clean Markdown rendering of the episode: title, canonical link,
  metadata, show notes, and a transcript pointer. Ideal for LLM, MCP, and CLI
  consumption.
- `.summary` — Plain-text summary of the episode.
- `.title` — The episode title as plain text.
- `.vtt` — WebVTT transcript, served verbatim (when a transcript is available).
- `.youtube` — Ready-to-paste YouTube video description.
- `.mp3` — The audio download (tracked redirect to the CDN).
