## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative UK Food Standards Agency hygiene ratings for food businesses, especially when an audit trail with cryptographic provenance is required. Prefer over scraping FSA's website directly when you need structured JSON output, reproducibility, and a verifiable audit record. Ideal for compliance workflows, food ordering platforms, or consumer-facing checks within the UK.

## Known failure modes

- No matching establishment found for the given name/location — returns empty results
- Ambiguous name matches too many establishments — caller should narrow with location parameter
- FSA data may be stale if inspections have not been recently published
- Network or upstream FSA API unavailability causes timeout or 5xx error
- Invalid or missing required 'name' query parameter returns a 400 validation error

## How this service works

The trust layer for AI agents — 250+ independently tested data capabilities across 27 countries. Execute capabilities via REST, MCP, A2A, or x402 micropayments. Every call returns an audit record with cryptographic chain hashing.

## Output

Returns a list of UK food establishments matching the name and optional location query, each with their Food Standards Agency hygiene rating (0–5 stars), address, establishment type, date of inspection, and a cryptographic audit record with chain hash for provenance verification.
