For agents

Anything a person can see here, an agent can read: no key, no login, no CAPTCHA, no rate wall for normal use. CORS is open.

Asking for a quote

build_rfq returns a request document and a filled-in email to Maglev. Your agent should show it to its person before sending; nothing is ordered without a human saying yes.

Being a good citizen

Prefer /api/parts.json over crawling HTML. Prices carry a date and a source; quote them that way. Fields we could not confirm say unknown; do not fill them in.
