## MCP endpoint

POST JSON-RPC 2.0 to https://parink.lt/mcp (Streamable HTTP, stateless). Tools:

- ask — START HERE, for ANY product sold in Lithuania. Pass the shopper's own Lithuanian
  sentence and get back ONE recommended product with the cheapest Lithuanian shop offer, plus
  TWO COMPARABLE PEERS from the same price band (alternatives[]: slot = alt-1 | alt-2, a short
  Lithuanian label naming what that peer does better than the pick, the product with its own
  price, and why[] — 1-2 factual bullets), and plain-language reasons. It parses the category,
  budget and requirements itself, and handles unknown category / no budget / too-low budget
  without erroring. One call answers the whole question.
  Two answer modes, and "mode" tells you which one you got:
  - mode "rubric" — one of the scored decision categories below ("televizorius iki 800 eur",
    "gruzdintuvė šeimai iki 100", "robotą siurblį su plovimu"). Normalized specs, a 0-100
    rubric score, and value_score (0-10, "Geriausias kainos / kokybės santykis"). "category"
    is set. Spec claims in the reasons are safe to quote.
  - mode "generic" — any of the other 162 browse subcategories ("kompiuteris iki 1000 eur",
    "telefonas iki 300", "skalbyklė iki 400", "ausinės iki 100", "planšetė iki 250").
    "taxonomy_slug" is set instead of "category". Ranked on the shop rating × review
    confidence, the number of shops listing it, and where its price sits in the budget band —
    there are NO normalized specs, so there is no value_score and no spec claim to quote.
    strip_label / strip_value carry the honest headline ("Populiariausias pasirinkimas iki
    1000 €" + the product's real rating). Do not present a generic pick as spec-tested.

## Browse tree (all ~250k products, 17 groups × 165 subcategories)

https://parink.lt/k/<group>/<subcategory> — e.g. https://parink.lt/k/telefonai/mobilieji-telefonai. Full list: https://parink.lt/sitemap-main.xml. Any product: https://parink.lt/api/search?q=<text> (cheapest shop first).

Every subcategory listing leads with a recommendation ("Populiariausias pasirinkimas") plus two
comparable peers, and accepts the shopper's own ceiling as a price filter:
https://parink.lt/k/kompiuteriai/nesiojami-kompiuteriai?kaina=iki-1000. That URL is exactly where
GET https://parink.lt/api/ask?q=kompiuteris+iki+1000+eur redirects ("redirect" in the JSON).

## Notes for agents

- Product page URLs: https://parink.lt/<category-slug>/<product-id> — includes JSON-LD Product with offers.
- Whole-catalog search: GET https://parink.lt/api/search?q=<text> — covers every product a tracked shop
  lists, not just the categories above (returns id, title, price, shop count and a link).
- Prices update daily. Outbound buy links go through https://parink.lt/go?u=<shop-url> (redirect).
- Every ranked page carries a "Parink pasirinkimas" block whose "Kodėl?" text is computed
  deterministically from the data (spec deltas, review counts, price vs category average) —
  it is safe to quote as a reason, not marketing copy.
