Execute a full checkout with AP2 mandate chain verification (intent, cart, payment mandates).
AI agents use execute_checkout to commit financial operations through Shopify Agentic MCP Gateway — usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.
This tool directly executes a financial transaction (checkout with payment). It spans Financial > Destructive > Execute in severity. The mention of 'payment mandates' and 'full checkout' confirms money movement. Misuse by an AI agent could result in unauthorized purchases, making this critical severity.
From the tool's definition "Execute a full checkout" and "payment mandates" — this tool completes a purchase transaction involving real payment processing
