component_count: 3
families:
- family: MNTN Pixel
  kind: client-side tracking tag
  description: >-
    A per-account JavaScript snippet placed in a site's HTML that collects visitor behaviour, builds
    retargeting audiences, and records conversions for attribution. This is MNTN's primary client-side
    surface -- there is no embeddable dashboard or UI element library.
  variants:
  - name: Tracking pixel
    type: javascript
    purpose: site-visitor collection and audience building
  - name: Conversion pixel
    type: javascript
    purpose: conversion event capture for attribution
  - name: Image pixel
    type: img
    purpose: fallback for environments where JavaScript cannot be injected

  distribution:
    registry: none
    pinned: false
    version: null
    published: null
    note: >-
      The snippet is generated per account inside the MNTN platform and pasted into the customer's
      site. It is not distributed through npm or a versioned CDN path, so there is no version a
      consumer can pin or audit -- the loader floats to whatever MNTN serves. Recorded as null with
      this note rather than omitted.
  api_surface:
    note: >-
      The pixel is configurable and observable through the Performance TV API's pixel tag -- 12
      operations covering GA4 id storage, conversion opt-out, signal strategies, a health overview,
      and a verification suite (event listing, page scrape, order-id handling, live pageview and
      conversion listeners, warning checks).
    operations:
    - pixel.getGa4Ids
    - pixel.storeGa4Ids
    - pixel.updateConversionOptOut
    - pixel.getSignalStrategies
    - pixel.getHealthOverview
    - pixel.events
    - pixel.scrapePage
    - pixel.handleOrderIds
    - pixel.listenPageviews
    - pixel.listenConversions
    - pixel.checkRedisEvents
    - pixel.checkWarnings
    spec: openapi/mntn-ptv-pixel-openapi.yml
- family: Installation surfaces
  kind: no-code loaders
  description: Vendor-maintained ways to deploy the pixel without touching site code.
  variants:
  - name: MNTN Shopify app
    type: platform-app
    marketplace: https://apps.shopify.com/mntn
    docs: https://help.mountain.com/en/articles/8121892-install-pixels-in-shopify
    purpose: installs the tracking and conversion pixels into a Shopify storefront automatically
  - name: MNTN Google Tag Manager template
    type: gtm-template
    docs: https://help.mountain.com/en/articles/8284705-install-mntn-pixels-using-google-tag-manager
    purpose: deploys the pixel through a GTM container
- family: Pixel Dashboard
  kind: hosted UI (in-platform)
  description: >-
    A dashboard inside the MNTN platform for pixel health, event verification and warnings. It is an
    in-product screen rather than an embeddable component -- it cannot be mounted in a customer app.
  docs: https://help.mountain.com/en/articles/10684899-understand-the-pixel-dashboard
  embeddable: false
not_present:
- Embeddable dashboard or reporting iframe
- Web component or element library
- Hosted checkout/onboarding surface
- Design system or UI package
note: >-
  MNTN's client-side surface is a tracking tag, not a UI toolkit. It is recorded here because it is a
  genuine first-party, customer-deployed browser artifact with a matching 12-operation API tag, and
  because its unpinned distribution is a real finding for anyone assessing supply-chain exposure.
