## Before you call it

1. Send the private key in the X-Api-Key header, not the private_key query parameter
2. Use a read-only private key for the MCP server unless the task writes stores or datasets
3. On 429 wait the `t` seconds from the RateLimit header, retry at most three times, and pause batches when `r` reaches 0
4. Use find_stores_nearby for the customer's own locations and find_nearby for public POIs
5. Read endpoint parameters from the /api-reference/ Markdown pages, which llms.txt marks as authoritative

## Connect

```bash
curl -H "X-Api-Key: $WOOSMAP_PRIVATE_KEY" "https://api.woosmap.com/localities/geocode?address=Place+de+la+Comedie+Montpellier"
```
