description: Knight Frank operates NO Model Context Protocol server. Searches on 2026-07-26 found no MCP
  server in the provider's estate, no @knightfrank package on npm, no entry in any public MCP registry,
  no /mcp endpoint on either API host, and no agent or AI documentation of any kind (llms.txt and ai-plugin.json
  both 404 on knightfrank.com and knightfrank.co.uk, and robots.txt blanket-disallows a list of AI crawlers).
  The tools below are a CANDIDATE surface derived by API Evangelist from the eleven operations of the
  anonymous corporate search API — they are what an MCP server over this contract would expose, not something
  Knight Frank publishes. Operation names use the operationIds assigned in overlays/knight-frank-api-v3-overlay.yaml,
  because the harvested contract declares none.

caveats:
- The upstream API enforces no authentication and no rate limiting, so any MCP server built over it would
  be an unmetered anonymous proxy in front of a live production search index.
- The people directory returns named individuals' direct-dial and mobile numbers and corporate email addresses.
  Exposing it as an agent tool is a data protection decision (UK GDPR), not merely a technical one.
- incrementSelectedCount is a non-idempotent unauthenticated write and should be excluded from, or gated
  in, any agent tool surface.
