HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/abbottdevelopments-shopmonkey-mcp-server/update-order ## Facts - Tool: `update_order` - Server: Shopmonkey MCP Server (`abbottdevelopments/shopmonkey-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/abbottdevelopments-shopmonkey-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/AbbottDevelopments/shopmonkey-mcp-server - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "update_order", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why update_order is rated Medium This tool modifies existing work order records reversibly—a classic Write operation. Severity is high because work orders are critical business documents that may contain financial details, customer information, and service history; unauthorized updates could cause significant operational disruption or compliance issues. However, it is not Destructive (no deletion) or Financial (no money movement) by itself. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'update_order' and description 'Update fields on an existing work order' indicate modification of existing data. The Shopmonkey context shows this operates on work orders which are core business objects in shop management." ## Use case AI agents use update_order to create or update resources in Shopmonkey MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context.
