Can't be undone 1Claude Code: ask
complete_purchaseComplete a checkout and place the order.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "complete_purchase" says "purchase": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.
Description, as the server wrote it Complete a checkout and place the order. Only call this when the checkout status is 'ready_for_complete'. Records the purchase as a conversion in telemetry and ends the attribution session. Returns the order confirmation with order ID and receipt link.
Changes things 3Claude Code: ask
check_orderCheck the status of a checkout session or order.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
Description, as the server wrote it Check the status of a checkout session or order. Use this after the user has completed an escalation step (e.g. payment in the browser) to see if the checkout can now proceed, or to check on a completed order's status.
start_checkoutStart a UCP checkout session for a product.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "start_checkout" says "start": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Start a UCP checkout session for a product. Discovers the merchant's UCP capabilities, creates a checkout session, and attaches content attribution data from the current session's search and comparison activity. Returns the checkout status and any information the merchant still needs (email, shipping address, etc).
update_checkout_infoUpdate a checkout session with buyer information.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "update_checkout_info" says "update": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Update a checkout session with buyer information. Provide the information the merchant requested (email, name, shipping address, discount codes). Call this after start_checkout when the merchant indicates what information is still needed. If the response has status 'requires_escalation', share the continue_url with the user so they can complete payment in their browser.
Only reads 3Claude Code: allow

Description, as the server wrote it Compare prices for a specific product across multiple merchants. Finds the same product at different retailers and shows price differences.

Why it is in this group
- The name "find_deals" says "find": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Find the best current deals in a product category. Searches for discounted, on-sale, or best-value products.
search_productsSearch for products across merchants and return comparison results.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "search_products" says "search": a word for reading.

Searches Shopify's global catalogue (50M+ products across all Shopify merchants) and Channel3's affiliate network. Results include direct checkout links.
This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
