WHAT IT DOES

What create_fulfillment does on AdminAgent

AI agents use create_fulfillment to create or update resources in AdminAgent — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your AdminAgent environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_fulfillment needs a policy

Fulfillment creation is a reversible write operation that modifies order records (marking items as shipped/in-transit). It creates fulfillment data but does not delete, execute code, or move money. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the tool name and operational context (Shopify order management) clearly indicate a write rather than read or destructive action.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_fulfillment' indicates creation of fulfillment records; sibling tools include 'cancel_fulfillment' and other order/inventory operations, establishing context of order management system where fulfillment creation modifies order state.
