The results of your request

What changes on your storefront

These are the direct outcomes of your commands.

LIVE

Updated storefront

The agent hides specific items so customers don't order things you don't have. Your menu stays accurate in real time.

SYNCED

Current menu state

Your agent keeps track of what is currently available. This ensures it always knows which items to toggle.

Action feedback

The agent tells you exactly which items it successfully hid or made available. You get immediate confirmation of the change.

  2. Locate specific items

    It scans the menu data to match your request to the correct item IDs.

  3. Toggle availability

    The agent updates the status of the items you mentioned to hide them from customers.
