WHAT IT DOES

What delete_customer_address does on Shopify Graphql

AI agents call delete_customer_address to permanently remove resources in Shopify Graphql, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why delete_customer_address is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes customer records from the Shopify store. While the name suggests deleting an address, the description explicitly states it deletes a customer—a destructive operation with high blast radius (loss of customer data, order history association, potential business continuity impact). Destructive severity exceeds Write because the action is irreversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_customer_address' and description 'Delete a customer' indicate irreversible deletion of customer data. The action cannot be undone.
