Get details for a single location.
AI agents call get_location to retrieve information from AdminAgent without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves information about a store location without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no blast radius if misused by an agent—at worst, it exposes location metadata that is typically not sensitive in a Shopify admin context. No financial, destructive, or code execution implications.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_location' and description 'Get details for a single location' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'Get' and the query-like nature of fetching location details are characteristic of read-only actions.
