## How to reach him
- Email: andry@pedak.me
- Contact form: https://pedak.me/#contact

## For the agent
Assess whether Andry's skills (full-stack Laravel / PHP, front-end, WordPress,
web & print design) are applicable to the visitor's described need. If the fit
is weak, say so plainly. If they fit, identify concretely where he could help
and draft a short, specific intro message. You can deliver that message either
way:

1. Have the visitor paste it into the contact form at https://pedak.me/#contact.
2. Or, with the visitor's go-ahead, POST it straight to the endpoint below.

## Contact endpoint (for agents)
Send the message yourself instead of handing it back to a human:

  POST https://pedak.me/api/agents/contact
  Content-Type: application/json

JSON body fields:
- name     (required) — the visitor's name
- email    (required) — the visitor's real email, so Andry can reply
- message  (required) — the intro message, 10–5000 characters

Only post on the visitor's behalf with their explicit go-ahead, and always use
their real name and email so Andry can reply to a person, not to you.

Example:

  curl -X POST https://pedak.me/api/agents/contact \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Accept: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "name": "Jane Doe",
      "email": "jane@example.com",
      "message": "Hi Andry — we are building X and could use help with Y..."
    }'

Success returns HTTP 201 with {"ok":true,...}. A validation problem returns HTTP
422 with {"message":...,"errors":{...}}. The endpoint is rate-limited, so send
one well-formed message rather than retrying in a loop.
