Search or list stores in the Partle marketplace.
Use for store-led questions ("what hardware shops are in Madrid?") rather
than product-led ones (use `search_products` for that). Pass no query to
browse the whole catalog.
Read-only. No authentication. Rate-limited to 100 requests/hour per IP.
Args:
query: Free-text search over store name and address. Omit to list
all stores in default order.
limit: Max results (1–50, default 20).
Returns:
A list of stores with `id`, `name`, `address`, `lat`/`lon` (when
geocoded), `homepage`, `type`, and `product_count` (active listings
in the store — useful for competitive-landscape sizing without a
separate `search_products` round-trip). Pass `id` to
`search_products(store_id=…)` to filter the product catalog by that
store.
