WHAT IT DOES

What get_shop_policies does on Shopify Graphql

AI agents call get_shop_policies to retrieve information from Shopify Graphql without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why get_shop_policies is rated Low

This tool retrieves existing shop policy documents (refund, privacy, terms of service). Fetching and reading static policy data produces no side effects, no data modifications, and no external operations. It is a straightforward read operation on publicly-facing configuration data. Severity is low because misuse by an AI agent would only expose information that is typically publicly available.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_shop_policies' with description 'Fetch shop policies' — the verb 'Fetch' indicates retrieval without side effects or modifications.
