## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `url_handle` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "url_handle" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "url_handle" says "handle": a word for a change.
```

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `bulk_price_change` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "bulk_price_change" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The description's first verb is "apply": a word for a change.
```

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `payout_estimate` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "payout_estimate" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "irreversible".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "payout_estimate" says "payout": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `payout_estimate`

- The name "payout_estimate" says "payout": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Estimate what actually lands in the bank after processing fees. PREMIUM (license).

Typical input {"order_total": 84.5, "fee_pct": 2.9, "fee_fixed": 0.3,
"orders": 120, "refund_rate_pct": 4} returns {"gross": 10140.0, "fees":
330.06, "refunds": 405.6, "net_payout": 9404.34, "effective_fee_pct":
3.26}.

Use for cash-flow planning. Not as an authoritative fee schedule: rates
depend on your plan, country and card mix, so pass your own. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

## Changes things (3)

Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask.

### `bulk_price_change`

- The description's first verb is "apply": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Apply one pricing rule across a list of prices and show the effect. PREMIUM (license).

Percentage first, then the flat amount, then rounding — stated explicitly
because the order changes the answer. Typical input {"prices": [19.99,
24.5], "change_pct": 10, "charm_ending": ".99"} returns {"rows":
[{"was": 19.99, "now": 21.99}, {"was": 24.5, "now": 26.99}],
"total_was": 44.49, "total_now": 48.98, "uplift_pct": 10.09}.

Use when repricing a catalogue before export. Not for what a price nets
you after Shopify's fees — that is payout_estimate. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "prices must contain at least one price"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `product_csv_check`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check a product CSV's header row against Shopify's current columns. FREE.

Catches the failure that wastes the most time: a template copied from an
out-of-date guide, using column names Shopify renamed. Typical input
{"header_row": ["Handle", "Title", "Body (HTML)", "Variant Price"]}
returns {"ok": false, "missing_required": [], "renamed": [{"found":
"Handle", "use": "URL handle"}, ...], "unrecognised": [], "verdict": "..."}.

Use before an import, on the header row alone. Not for whether the values
in the rows are valid — check a handle with url_handle and a metafield key
with metafield_key_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "header_row must contain at least one column name"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `url_handle`

- The name "url_handle" says "handle": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Turn a product title into a valid, unique Shopify URL handle. FREE.

Shopify handles are lowercase, may contain letters, numbers and dashes,
and may not contain spaces. Typical input {"title": "Men's  Merino Wool
Socks (2-Pack)"} returns {"handle": "mens-merino-wool-socks-2-pack",
"valid": true, "changed": true, "collisions": []}.

Use when generating handles for an import, or checking one you already
have. Not for validating a whole header row — that is product_csv_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "title must not be empty"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

## Only reads (2)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `metafield_key_check`

- The description's first verb is "validate": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Validate a metafield namespace and key before you define it. FREE.

Shopify metafield namespaces and keys are lowercase alphanumerics and
underscores; a capital letter or a dash is rejected at definition time,
usually after the rest of the import has already run. Typical input
{"namespace": "custom", "key": "Care-Instructions"} returns {"ok": false,
"problems": ["key: dashes and capitals are not allowed"], "suggested_key":
"care_instructions"}.

Use when designing metafields. Not for the CSV column that carries them —
that is product_csv_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `variant_matrix`

- The description's first verb is "count": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Count the variants a set of options produces, and flag the ceilings. FREE.

Option counts multiply, so three modest lists become a number nobody
intended. Typical input {"options": {"Size": ["S", "M", "L"], "Colour":
["Black", "Navy"]}} returns {"option_count": 2, "variant_count": 6,
"within_limits": true, "per_option": {"Size": 3, "Colour": 2}}.

Use before building an import file, to find out whether the catalogue
needs splitting into several products. Not for validating the resulting
CSV's columns — that is product_csv_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "options must contain at least one option"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```
