## Description

A reference grocery storefront exposing search across roughly 110 products and tools for managing a cart shared between the shopper and the agent. It models the commerce case: the agent does not scrape the catalogue or synthesise clicks, it calls `searchProducts` and `addToCart`.

Commerce is where WebMCP's risk becomes concrete. A cart tool is state-changing and sits inside a session that will eventually reach checkout, so the boundary between "agent helped me shop" and "agent bought something" is a single tool definition. It declares browser control and outbound network access. Real storefronts adopting this pattern should keep irreversible steps — payment, address changes — behind explicit human confirmation rather than behind another tool.

## Why it scored 10

The score starts at the catalog's neutral base of 50 and moves only through the signals below. The formula is published at https://catalog.anomity.ai/about — there is no model and no hidden heuristic.

| Signal | Contribution | Severity | Evidence |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Published by the vendor | -40 | trust offset |  |

Clamped result: **10/100**, band **low**.

## Capabilities

| Capability | Name | Security implication |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `browser:control` | Browser control | Drives a browser session. Combined with credential access can impersonate the user on web services. |
| `network:outbound` | Outbound network | Can make outbound network requests. Required for hosted model providers and remote APIs; also the path for data exfiltration if combined with read access. |
