Key Capabilities
Type-safe order management via MCP Server
This MCP Server exposes `create_store_order` and `update_store_order` with strict validation rules. Your agent validates the structure of every incoming order against Pydantic schemas before writing to your store. If a sales channel sends malformed customer details, the agent catches it instantly. This prevents bad data from reaching your warehouse and causing delivery failures.
Validated inventory audits
The `list_inventory_items` tool returns structured stock data that matches your internal Python models. Your agent uses this data to run automated audits without parsing messy, unvalidated JSON. When checking a specific SKU, `get_inventory_item` ensures you get exact data types for stock counts. This guarantees your inventory logic never operates on corrupted numbers.
Strict shipment verification
The `create_order_shipment` tool requires specific parameters like tracking numbers and carrier codes. Your agent validates these fields at runtime, blocking incomplete shipment updates. By calling `list_order_shipments`, the agent retrieves existing tracking details in a strictly typed format. This makes it easy to feed shipment data into downstream notification systems.
