Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live How-To Geek endpoint catalog — 1 endpoints, 1 documented request parameters, and 1 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
Documented endpoint coverage
1 documented How-To Geek endpoints, all in the News family.
Published request surface
1 request parameter is documented across those How-To Geek endpoints, 1 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
1 of the 1 How-To Geek endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 1 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Documented failure modes
How-To Geek endpoints document their error responses (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.
Agent-callable MCP tools
1 hosted MCP tool backs the How-To Geek endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

- Step 2
Plan around How-To Geek's source-specific constraints
How-To Geek describes its work as approachable help for technical problems, product understanding, and gadget decisions; its current navigation separates news, hardware, operating systems, software, mobile, new technology, streaming, reviews, and buying guides. This integration is intentionally a single story feed. Those desks may help downstream labeling, but they are not supported Crawlora filters; use the returned summary and link to decide which explainers need a separate review.
