Preview brief
# Integration brief: XML Team Solutions (API Sportswire)

Goal: build a feature on XML Team Solutions (API Sportswire) data. Use only the official documentation below as the source of truth.

## Known facts (from SportDex, verify before relying on them)
- Website: https://www.xmlteam.com
- Docs: https://www.apisportswire.com
- Sports: UNKNOWN — check the docs
- Data: Fixtures, Results, Live scores, Team stats
- Protocols: XML feed, REST; formats: xml
- Auth: UNKNOWN — check the docs
- Free plan: none listed
- Note: Content showcase with sample data at showcase.apisportswire.com (no login). REST inferred from 'on-demand API'; sport list not extracted. Founded year is 'servicing since 2003' per page.

## 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.
