Shipping preview

get_shipping_preview

Read-only

Get Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) shipping options and estimated delivery dates before creating an order. Shows available shipping speeds, fees, and fulfillability. Max 50 items per preview.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description
`items`	Yes	Items to get shipping preview for
`destination`	Yes	Shipping destination address
`include_raw_rows`	No	For tabular results, false returns compact rows capped at MCP_TEXT_ROW_PREVIEW_LIMIT (default 10), regardless of limit. Complete-page and custom non-tabular responses may ignore this option; see tool-specific notes. Default true; large full-row responses are capped separately. Freshness fields require include_diagnostics=true in either row mode, where supported.
`include_diagnostics`	No	True enables expanded freshness diagnostics. Where supported, snapshot_capture_at and snapshot_data_through_date are populated only when include_diagnostics=true, in both compact and full-row modes; values may still be null if source data is unavailable. Default false. Basic empty-result data-window diagnostics are included by default when available.

Output Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`evidence`	No

AddedOct 7, 2026

TDQS

A4.2/5.0

Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

The annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so safety is covered. The description adds useful behavioral context by explaining that this is a preview showing speeds, fees, and fulfillability, plus the item cap; it does not cover auth or rate limits, which is acceptable given the annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Three tight sentences. Purpose is front-loaded, followed by return content and then the item limit; every sentence adds useful information without redundancy.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, so return values need not be explained, and annotations cover the safety profile. The description is complete for the core preview use case, though it does not add prerequisites or destination constraints beyond what the schema provides.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents items, destination, and the include flags. The description adds little beyond repeating the 50-item limit and implying items and destination are relevant, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource: MCF shipping options and estimated delivery dates. It also distinguishes the tool's role by saying it is used before creating an order and shows shipping speeds, fees, and fulfillability.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly frames when to use it: before creating an order, and notes the 50-item preview limit. It does not name a when-not condition or a direct alternative such as get_mcf_orders, but the context is still clear.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
