description: >-
  Rhone Apparel, Inc. is a direct-to-consumer men's premium performance apparel and activewear brand
  founded in 2014 by brothers Nate and Ben Checketts and headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut. It
  sells through its own storefront, wholesale partners including Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's, and
  its own retail locations. Rhone runs no developer program and publishes no OpenAPI, SDK or API
  documentation. It does, however, operate a real and reachable agent-commerce surface: its Shopify
  storefront serves a store-specific llms.txt and agents.md, a Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP)
  merchant profile at /.well-known/ucp, an anonymous MCP endpoint exposing 13 catalog, cart,
  checkout and order tools with full JSON Schema inputSchemas, and Shopify Customer Accounts OIDC
  discovery branded on account.rhone.com. The company is profiled here as an agent-commerce
  participant rather than an API producer.

- name: Rhone UCP Commerce (MCP)
  description: >-
    Rhone's agent-facing commerce surface, implementing the Universal Commerce Protocol over MCP
    (JSON-RPC 2.0). Thirteen tools cover catalog search and lookup, product detail, cart create /
    update / cancel, checkout create / update / complete / cancel, and order read. tools/list is
    anonymous and returns full JSON Schema inputSchemas; tools/call requires a resolvable UCP agent
    profile URI, and complete_checkout additionally requires an idempotency key. Rhone's own
    robots.txt and llms.txt state that payment must never be completed without contemporaneous
    human approval. Platform-provided by Shopify, served from Rhone-controlled hosts and scoped to
    Rhone's own catalog and orders.

    www.rhone.com and checkout.rhone.com sit behind a Cloudflare managed challenge
    (cf-mitigated: challenge) and return HTTP 403 to every non-browser client, including
    /robots.txt. Per pipeline rules a bot challenge is not a dead pointer, so the brand-host
    pointers were verified by fetching the identical path on Rhone's own reachable Shopify origin,
    rhone.myshopify.com, which serves the same store and the same routes (canonical link on the
    origin points at checkout.rhone.com).

  detail: >-
    Rhone publishes no developer program and no OpenAPI, but its Shopify storefront serves a real
    agent surface - a store-specific llms.txt and agents.md, a UCP merchant profile at
    /.well-known/ucp, an anonymous MCP endpoint returning 13 tools with full JSON Schema
    inputSchemas, and Shopify Customer Accounts OIDC on account.rhone.com. The brand hosts
    www.rhone.com and checkout.rhone.com are behind a Cloudflare managed challenge and 403 every
    probe - including the /.well-known/ucp and /api/ucp/mcp paths Rhone's own robots.txt advertises
    to agents - so the surface was verified on Rhone's reachable Shopify origin instead.
