One governed assistant for your storefront and your back office.

A single adapter serves both shoppers and merchants. Persona is just the user’s role and permissions — so a customer can track an order while only staff can issue a refund or adjust stock.

How the governed layer helps

Control is the default here.

One adapter serves both storefront customers and back-office merchants; the persona is nothing more than user.role plus permission and available-action references. A customer tracks an order; the same code path, with a merchant’s references, exposes approval-gated refunds and stock adjustments.

Whether you run Shopify (hosted, OAuth2, Admin API token held in the adapter) or nopCommerce (self-hosted, JWT, C# services), the difference lives inside the adapter and is invisible to the platform core. Swapping one for the other doesn’t touch anything above the adapter.

This is a documented integration approach with worked examples — not a pre-built, install-and-go connector. Ask us what a production integration looks like for your setup.

Every action an agent takes here runs through the same gate: least-privilege permissions, policy and an audit trail, with the sensitive steps held for human approval. The controls behind it are set out on the security and data-handling page.

Example agents & workflows

What it looks like in practice.

Illustrative examples of what a host would configure — tool ids and risk levels are the host’s to define. The primitives underneath are built and tested.

Example

Storefront order-status & returns

With user.role = customer, an agent tracks the order read-only and initiates a return through approval — the refund tool simply isn’t in scope.

Example

Merchant refund & stock adjust

Flip the role to merchant and issue_refund and adjust_stock appear as approval-gated actions on the very same adapter — elevated, but still approved and audited.

Example

Catalog & promotions report

A merchandiser asks which SKUs are slow-moving and which promo drove the most revenue; specialist agents return a table and a promo-revenue chart, store-scoped.
