Beacon - verified-merchant index for AI shopping agents tools (5)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • find_best_merchantFree

    Rank merchants that can actually fulfill a purchase need, by honest signals only. Args: category: product category, e.g. "vodka". ship_to: ISO region the order must ship to, e.g. "US-FL". require_age_gate: only return merchants that enforce 21+. limit: max results. optimize_for: what matters to the BUYER -- "trust" (default), "price" (lowest matched price), or "speed" (same-day, then next-day fulfillment). Ties always break by earned trust. product_type/dest_state/channel: pass all three (e.g. "spirits", "FL", "ship"|"local_delivery") for STRICT COMPLIANCE mode -- only merchants with attested age-gate + attested license + a legal jurisdiction path are returned, each with its compliance verdict. Every result carries ships_to states (match them against where the buyer lives), best_price, and the evidence behind the record. Paid placement never affects any ranking (ranking_basis states the basis actually used).

What agents get

Why Beacon is different

regression-tested, and every ranking response says so (ranking_basis).

  • Earned trust only. Paid placement never moves rank — enforced in code and

from the State of Florida's daily public records (DBPR/AB&T); age-gate and jurisdiction rules fail safe (illegal ship-to returns zero, not a guess).

  • Evidence on every fact. Results carry provenance an agent can audit.
  • Real compliance, not self-declaration. Merchant license attestations come
  • No shopper data. Beacon stores no shopper-level identity, ever.

The skill definition lives in SKILL.md.
