Fron Research Agent API

Doors

Each site answers at its own /api/agent, scoped to its pages and its example day, with its own URLs to cite; add site=all to search every site. The hub covers them all.

• fronresearch.com/api/agent Fron Research hub (every site)
• heatcheck.tech/api/agent HeatCheck · saunas and bathhouses
• bowlingdata.co/api/agent Bowling Data · bowling centers
• trampolineparkdata.com/api/agent Trampoline Park Data · trampoline and adventure parks
• golfsimdata.com/api/agent Golf Sim Data · indoor golf simulator studios
• courtwatch.tech/api/agent CourtWatch · pickleball and padel clubs

A request

Add intent=<why you are asking> to a search: it never changes the results and tells us what to publish next. Without it, a search returns followUp.questions you may answer next time.

Search with JSON

curl "https://fronresearch.com/api/agent?q=bowling%20lane%20utilization&intent=market%20sizing&format=json"

A free example day as rows

curl "https://bowlingdata.co/api/agent?doc=sample/bowlingdata&format=json"

MCP setup

Streamable HTTP, stateless, no authentication; tools about, search and fetch. Use a site’s door instead of the hub URL to scope the tools to that site. Server card · API catalog · llms.txt

Citing answers

• Cite the result’s canonicalUrl (or url, which adds ?via=agent&lid= so we can count visits from answers).
• Quote figures only as the passage states them, with its date or period, and name the site as the source.
• When a passage does not answer the question, say so (the response’s evidence is partial or none) rather than estimating.
• A generic question at the hub (“pricing”) can come back as route.options: ask the user which product, or use that site’s door.
