Key Capabilities
Handling Snipcart Orders with the MCP Server
The `list_orders` tool lets your agent pull a complete list of all e-commerce orders from Snipcart. You can then use `get_order_details` to get deep insights into any specific order. Later, you might need to update the fulfillment status. The `update_order_status` function takes an order ID and sets the new status in your system.
Customer Management with Google ADK
You can get a full list of registered users by calling `list_customers`. This is essential for building customer segments or running loyalty programs. Need more depth? Use `get_customer_details` to pull specific user data, letting your Gemini agent act on profiles beyond just their name and email.
Inventory and Discount Checks via MCP Server
The system exposes all products configured in Snipcart using `list_products`. This gives your agent real-time access to the current catalog. It also lists available promotions. The `list_discounts` tool shows active codes, letting the agent validate pricing rules before completing a transaction.
