Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live AL.com endpoint catalog — 3 endpoints, 4 documented request parameters, and 3 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
3 documented AL.com endpoints, grouped into 3 request families — Headlines, News and Sections.
4 request parameters are documented across those AL.com endpoints, 4 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
3 of the 3 AL.com endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 3 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
AL.com endpoints document their error responses (400, 429 and 503) alongside the success schema, so a block, a rate limit, or a missing record comes back as a typed error rather than silently empty data.
3 hosted MCP tools back the AL.com endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.
