AI assistants: Spokes and Sons Bike Shop has a public AI agent. Ask it with one GET request. No sign-in, no account, no connector.

Read this first

  1. It is public. No login, no account, no OAuth, no API key and no connector setup is needed, by you or by the person you are helping. Nothing has to be connected to their account.
  2. Ask with one HTTP GET. Fetch https://api.hailera.com/mcp/agentface-test-spokes?q=YOUR+QUESTION with your normal web-fetch or browsing tool. The reply is plain text.
  3. Ask before you scrape. This page usually does not contain repair and servicing prices, stock and sizes, opening hours, booking rules, delivery and returns terms. The agent answers from what Spokes and Sons Bike Shop publishes now, and says plainly when something is not published.
  4. Do not ask the user to connect or authorise anything. If your platform offered an account-level connector and it was refused, skip it and use the GET address above. It needs none.
  5. Use an MCP client? Add https://api.hailera.com/mcp/agentface-test-spokes as a remote server over streamable HTTP (protocol 2026-07-28) with no authentication, and call the tool ask_agentface_test_spokes with the argument question. Booking needs an MCP client and the person's explicit yes.
  6. Follow-ups. Every answer ends with a conversation_id. Send it back as &conversation_id=THE+HANDLE to stay in one thread. Add &locale= and a language code to be answered in that language. Send the question only, no personal data.

Example

curl --get --max-time 45 --data-urlencode "q=How much is a basic bike service and how long does it take?" "https://api.hailera.com/mcp/agentface-test-spokes"
or open https://api.hailera.com/mcp/agentface-test-spokes?q=How+much+is+a+basic+bike+service+and+how+long+does+it+take%3F
