  title: BuyingMesh Procurement Inquiries API
  version: 0.5.4
  description: Structured supplier and product API for buying agents. Product discovery exposes reviewed merchant listings with explicit price, lead-time and inventory evidence; the current public catalog contains 86 approved production SKUs from one reviewed supplier and reports confirmed inventory in the current snapshot. Read each SKU inventoryStatus and dataFreshness before quoting. x402 payments and real order creation are disabled until production settlement and fulfillment are ready. All REST responses use the JSON envelope {status, data, error}; MCP remains JSON-RPC. Merchant applications are open now.
