Preview brief
# Integration brief: PFF (Pro Football Focus)

Goal: build a feature on PFF (Pro Football Focus) data. Use only the official documentation below as the source of truth.

## Known facts (from SportDex, verify before relying on them)
- Website: https://b2b.pff.com/data
- Docs: UNKNOWN — find the developer docs first
- Sports: American football, College sports
- Data: Fantasy, Play-by-play, Player stats, Team stats
- Protocols: REST; formats: json
- Auth: api_key
- Free plan: none listed
- Note: b2b.pff.com/data now 301-redirects to teamworks.com (Teamworks reportedly acquired PFF's enterprise business, Mar 2026, per aggregator). PFF Pro tier (about $199.99, period not stated) includes API/CLI per search snippet; not recorded as a plan. Least certain.

## Verify before writing code
- 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.
