Get full details of a single customer by their ID, including addresses, order count, and total spent.
AI agents call get_customer to retrieve information from Kockatoos Shopify MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves customer information without creating, modifying, or deleting data. It is a read-only query operation. Severity is low because while customer data is sensitive, retrieval alone poses minimal risk compared to tools that modify or delete data on this server (e.g., cancel_order, adjust_inventory). The blast radius of misuse is limited to information exposure rather than operational harm.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get full details of a single customer' - a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. Returns customer data: addresses, order count, total spent.
