## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"openWorldHint":true}; The input addresses people (input.recipient): what it sends cannot be taken back.
```


## Deletes or cancels (5)

Removes, cancels or revokes something. Claude Code: deny.

### `gelato_cancel_order`

- The name "gelato_cancel_order" says "cancel": a word for removing or ending something.
- The description says "cannot be undone".
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```

### `gelato_create_order`

- The name "gelato_create_order" says "create": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create an order. By default it is a DRAFT: nothing is produced or charged until it is submitted with gelato_submit_draft_order (or in the dashboard). With order_type "order" Gelato starts production and charges the account right away. Shipment: a shipmentMethodUid from gelato_quote_order, or "normal"/"standard"/"express"; omitted = the cheapest. POST /v4/orders.
```

### `gelato_create_product_from_template`

- The name "gelato_create_product_from_template" says "create": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a product in a connected store from a template, with your own images in the template's placeholders. Gelato creates the product, then publishes variants and mockups in the background (track it with gelato_get_store_product). Hidden in the online store unless visible_in_online_store is true. POST /v1/stores/{storeId}/products:create-from-template.
```

### `gelato_delete_draft_order`

```

### `gelato_submit_draft_order`

- The name "gelato_submit_draft_order" says "submit": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Convert a DRAFT order into a regular order: Gelato starts production and charges the account. Items stay as they are. Only drafts can be submitted. PATCH /v4/orders/{orderId} {"orderType":"order"}.
```

## Can't be undone (1)

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

### `gelato_quote_order`

- The input addresses people (input.recipient): what it sends cannot be taken back.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

```untrusted-server-text
Price an order before placing it: product prices and the available shipment methods (shipmentMethodUid, price, min/max delivery days and dates) per fulfillment facility, for a recipient address.

```

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

### `gelato_check_stock`
