Can't be undone 1Claude Code: ask
  • shop_and_deliverBook a REAL personal-shopper run - a BuyNearby driver goes into a named physical store, shops from the given item list, and delivers it.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "shop_and_deliver" says "deliver": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Book a REAL personal-shopper run - a BuyNearby driver goes into a named physical store, shops from the given item list, and delivers it. Works even for stores that aren't BuyNearby partners (set needs_verification expectations: our team calls ahead to confirm stock first for those). This immediately creates the order, exactly like a customer finishing the Shop & Deliver chat flow on buynearby.store - it is not a draft. Estimate each item's price yourself (or via search_products if it's a known BuyNearby-catalog item) since the customer is only charged the driver's actual receipt total afterward, not this estimate.
Changes things 3Claude Code: ask
  • check_stockCheck live stock level for a specific product.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 live stock level for a specific product. Optionally filter by store. If the caller's API key is a store-scoped partner key, the result is limited to that key's own store regardless of store_id.
  • place_cart_orderShop BuyNearby's real marketplace catalog: add multiple products (from one store or several) to a cart and check out as ONE real order in a single call - price/stock for every item…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
    Shop BuyNearby's real marketplace catalog: add multiple products (from one store or several) to a cart and check out as ONE real order in a single call - price/stock for every item is looked up from the live catalog server-side (you cannot supply your own price). Use this instead of place_order whenever the user wants more than one item, or items from different stores. Uses the exact same tax/delivery-fee/coupon pricing engine as the human checkout page, so the total you quote back to the user is authoritative. Creates a REAL order immediately - not a draft - visible right away in the store's dashboard for confirmation. Payment is a pre-authorization link texted/emailed to the customer (card held, not charged) - the actual charge happens once the store confirms.
  • place_orderPlace an order for a single product from BuyNearby's own catalog (stores running the BuyNearby POS - stock/price are live and guaranteed).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
    Place an order for a single product from BuyNearby's own catalog (stores running the BuyNearby POS - stock/price are live and guaranteed). Requires API key authentication. A store-scoped partner key can only order products from its own store. Payment is a pre-authorization link texted/emailed to the customer (card is held, not charged) - the actual charge happens once the store confirms the order, not at booking time.
Only reads 4Claude Code: allow
  • book_courierGet a courier price quote, book a REAL point-to-point courier/parcel delivery in Calgary, check a booking's status, or cancel one - no BuyNearby account needed.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get a courier price quote, book a REAL point-to-point courier/parcel delivery in Calgary, check a booking's status, or cancel one - no BuyNearby account needed. action:'book' immediately creates the booking and auto-assigns a driver if one is available, exactly like a human finishing the form at buynearby.store/courier-book.php; the response's booking_ref is a real, live booking, not a draft. Payment is a link texted to the customer afterward (this call never charges a card). Use action:'quote' first if you just need a price before the user has decided to book. Use action:'status' to check on an existing booking, and action:'cancel' to self-cancel one (only while it's still 'pending' or 'assigned' — once a driver has picked up the package, direct the customer to support instead).
  • get_storesGet a list of local stores in Calgary with location info.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_stores" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get a list of local stores in Calgary with location info.
  • get_todays_dealsGet today's real discounted products and active flash deals — products currently priced below their regular price, and time-limited flash deals.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_todays_deals" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get today's real discounted products and active flash deals — products currently priced below their regular price, and time-limited flash deals. This is the actual sale/discount data; search_products has no discount flag so a text search for "sale" or "deals" won't find this.
  • search_productsSearch for products available at local Calgary stores.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "search_products" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search for products available at local Calgary stores. Returns product name, store, price, stock level, and store categories. Use this when the user asks about finding, buying, or locating any product locally.

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.
