Preview brief
# Integration brief: GRID

Goal: build a feature on GRID data. Use only the official documentation below as the source of truth.

## Known facts (from SportDex, verify before relying on them)
- Website: https://grid.gg
- Docs: https://docs.grid.gg/public/documentation
- Sports: Esports
- Data: Fixtures, Historical data, Odds, Predictions, Team stats, Widgets
- Protocols: REST, WebSocket; formats: json
- Auth: UNKNOWN — check the docs
- Free plan: none listed
- Note: Claim is 'sub-200ms latency'. Demo request offered for rights holders. Auth method not stated.

## Verify before writing code
- authentication method
- live update frequency
- whether commercial use is allowed on the plan you pick
- exact endpoint paths, parameters and response fields (read the official docs, do not guess)

## Implementation rules
- Keep the API key on the server (environment variable, backend route or edge function); never ship it to the browser.
- Cache responses and respect rate limits; count how many requests each screen triggers.
- Handle errors explicitly: invalid key, quota exceeded (429), missing fields, empty fixtures, timeouts.
- Start with one demo request and log the raw response before building UI on assumed field names.
