  note: >-
    Brooklinen runs no developer API key program. Two distinct authentication postures exist: the read-only
    storefront JSON surface is fully anonymous, and the transactional UCP/MCP surface is gated by agent
    identity (a resolvable UCP agent profile) with customer authorization handled by Shopify's OAuth 2.0 /
    OIDC customer account issuer.

  description: >-
    The documented read-only storefront JSON endpoints (/products.json, /products/{handle}.json,
    /collections/{handle}/products.json, /search/suggest.json, /cart.js) require no credential. Confirmed by
    anonymous HTTP 200 on each, 2026-08-02.

  required: true
  applies_to: https://www.brooklinen.com/api/ucp/mcp
  description: >-
    The MCP endpoint requires the calling agent to identify itself with a URI pointing at its own UCP profile
    document, which the merchant fetches. This is agent identity, not user authorization — it gates
    tools/list as well as tool invocation. An anonymous or unresolvable profile returns HTTP 422 with
    JSON-RPC error -32001 (`invalid_profile_url`).
