+# route.bible
+
+Reference Bible passages and generate app-agnostic links or QR codes. route.bible acts as a universal router, allowing users to open scriptures in their preferred Bible application (YouVersion, BibleGateway, Logos, etc.).
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| Action | Pattern |
+|--------|---------|
+| Generate link | `https://route.bible/GEN.1.1` |
+| Generate QR code | `https://route.bible/GEN.1.1?qr=true` |
+
+## Usage
+
+The routing layer follows a stable URL contract using standard book abbreviations and OSIS-style references.
+
+### Canonical Link Generation
+
+To generate a universal link for a passage, use the following URL pattern:
+`https://route.bible/<BOOK>.<CHAPTER>.<VERSE>`
+
+Examples:
+- `https://route.bible/GEN.1.1`
+- `https://route.bible/JHN.3.16`
+
+### QR Code Integration
+
+To generate a QR code pointing to a passage, append `?qr=true` to the canonical link.
+- `https://route.bible/ROM.12.1-2?qr=true`
