What Slotcar is for

A hand-curated slot car racing hobby reference — scales, track types, car classes, formats, and care tips.

What it does

Slotcar is a fully local, hand-curated slot car racing hobby reference. scale_info gives full detail on one track scale (1:24, 1:32, 1:43, 1:64, HO) — ratio, typical car length, common track types and classes, space needed, and pros/cons — or lists all five with no argument. track_type_info explains routed, sectional, digital (lane-change), analog (fixed-lane), portable, commercial/rental, oval and road-course track. car_class_info covers GT/Sports Car, Prototype/LMP, Formula/Open-Wheel, Touring Car, Rally, Stock Car/Oval, Wide-Pan drag & oval chassis, Vintage/Retro and Flexi-Chassis classes. racing_format_info explains lap-count, timed, endurance, elimination/bracket, handicap, team/relay, league/points series and time-trial qualifying formats. maintenance_tip gives a practical care tip (braid, gears, tires, axles, body alignment, track cleaning, wiring, motor break-in, magnets, controllers) with why it matters. term_glossary defines 24 pieces of slot car terminology. find_scale_for_space suggests 1-3 scales that fit a plain-language description of available space, like a small apartment or a dedicated garage. beginner_tips gives a curated shortlist for someone starting the hobby. Keyless; fully local; zero upstream calls; nothing stored.

What it is not

Not an official product of, or affiliated with, any brand, league, publisher, or organization it may factually mention. Slotcar is a hand-curated reference and design tool, not a substitute for an official rulebook, certified instruction, or professional advice. Fully local, zero upstream calls, nothing stored.

Conventions

• Read-only. Every tool reads public data or computes; nothing is written anywhere and nothing about the user is stored.
• Result envelope. ok: true with data, or ok: false with a structured error (bad_input, not_found, upstream_error). degraded lists optional sources that were unreachable.
• Rate limits. Free tier 60 tool calls/minute and 300/day per user (keyed on the user identifier supplied by the host agent, else client IP); Pro keys raise this. Over-limit calls return HTTP 429 with Retry-After. initialize and tools/list are never counted.

Slotcar — Privacy Policy

Effective 25 September 2026. Unify Dynamics LLC ("we", "us"), Menlo Park, California.

What Slotcar is. Slotcar is a connector (an MCP server and REST API) that AI assistants and personal agents call on your behalf for a hand-curated slot car racing hobby reference — scales, track types, car classes, formats, and care tips. You interact with your assistant; the assistant sends us only the arguments needed for that one lookup.

What we receive. The arguments of each tool call, the technical headers needed to serve the request (an IP address or a client identifier supplied by the assistant, and a Pro API key if you have one), and standard server logs.

Everything is answered from a bundled, hand-curated reference file and nothing is stored. No request is forwarded to any third party — there is no upstream call at all, live or otherwise — and no query is logged in request bodies, recorded, or used to train anything.

What we do not receive or store. We do not receive your conversation with the assistant or your name, and we do not build a profile from your queries: each request is answered independently and nothing carries over between requests. Rate-limit counters (a client identifier and timestamps) are held in memory for at most 24 hours. Hosting-provider access logs, which contain IP addresses and request paths but not request bodies, are retained for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

Sub-processors. None — the entire dataset is bundled with the server and answered locally. Hosting: Vercel (United States regions).

Legal bases and your rights. Our processing is necessary to provide the service you request through your assistant. Because we store no personal data beyond short-lived logs, requests to access, correct or delete personal data are usually satisfied automatically; you can still contact agent@connectorbay.com and we will respond within 30 days. We do not sell or share personal information and do not use your data to train models.

Children. Slotcar is a general-audience service operated by the adult using the assistant.

Changes. We will post changes here with a new effective date.
