Hi @neco 👋 — gentle re-surface (PR open ~3 days, no review yet, CI green/mergeable).

Quick fresh context in case it helps triage:

• Officially listed in the MCP Registry (ai.buywhere/buywhere-mcp, status active since 2026-04-29), so this entry mirrors a vetted source.
• Live remote endpoint: https://api.buywhere.ai/mcp (streamable-http), plus stdio via @buywhere/mcp-server.
• Catalog now covers 161M+ products / 88K+ merchants across SG/SEA/US.

Happy to adjust the entry/format to match your data category conventions if needed — just let me know. Resolves #6.
