Key Capabilities
Stream PrestaShop Catalog Data via Vercel AI SDK
`list_products` grabs your entire e-commerce catalog using pagination bounds like `0,20`. Your Next.js app streams these XML-parsed arrays directly into the UI. You don't make users wait for a loading spinner. The AI client pulls pricing and descriptions while `get_product` targets specific item IDs. Inventory tracking happens live. You call `list_stock` to map available quantities across complex item structures. When a user asks about availability, `get_stock` hits the constrained resource ID. The stock count appears in your React component instantly.
Map Sales History in Real-Time
`list_orders` pulls active fulfillment statuses and totals directly against specific customer IDs. You pipe this data straight into your frontend dashboard. If a user needs a deep dive, `get_order` maps the raw Webservice XML nodes to trace line items and payment success paths. Customer context loads alongside the order. `list_customers` fetches emails, names, and account creation dates. Your Vercel AI SDK setup merges this CRM data with logistics lines from `list_addresses`. The UI updates as the agent reads the delivery bounds.
Read Store Geometry and Currencies
`list_categories` maps out all root and child categories dictating your store navigation. Your agent reads this to understand where products live. It builds the routing logic on the fly without hardcoded paths. Pricing context comes from `list_currencies`. This tool lists all active currencies configured within your PrestaShop interface. You feed these arrays to the streaming function, letting the model format international pricing correctly before it hits the DOM.
