Bartesian

aid: bartesian
name: Bartesian
description: 'Bartesian is a Chicago-based consumer appliance company founded in 2014 by Ryan Close, maker of a capsule-based
  countertop cocktail machine that mixes bar-quality drinks on demand from a pod of bitters, juices and extracts plus the
  user''s own base spirit. The company launched off a Kickstarter campaign, took investment from Beam Suntory in 2016, and
  closed a US$20 million round led by Cleveland Avenue in 2021. It runs a razor-and-blade model selling machines and cocktail
  capsules direct to consumers, plus commercial placements in stadiums and airport lounges. Bartesian publishes no first-party
  developer program or REST API, but its Shopify storefront at bartesian.com exposes a real and unusually open agent-facing
  commerce surface: a published llms.txt and agents.md, a dedicated agentic-discovery sitemap, a Universal Commerce Protocol
  merchant profile at /.well-known/ucp, and a live MCP endpoint at /api/ucp/mcp that returns all 13 UCP Shopping tools with
  complete JSON Schema inputSchemas to an anonymous caller - gating execution, not discovery - alongside OAuth 2.0 / OpenID
  Connect discovery for Shopify customer accounts.'

  description: 'The agent-facing commerce surface of the Bartesian Shopify storefront. The store publishes a Universal Commerce
    Protocol merchant profile at https://bartesian.com/.well-known/ucp declaring UCP versions 2026-04-08 and 2026-01-23, the
    dev.ucp.shopping service over both an MCP transport at https://bartesian.com/api/ucp/mcp and an embedded transport, and
    eight capabilities covering cart, checkout, fulfillment, discount, order and catalog search/lookup. Unlike most UCP storefronts,
    this endpoint answers an anonymous initialize and tools/list with HTTP 200, returning all 13 tools together with their
    full JSON Schema draft 2020-12 input schemas - the real contract, captured verbatim. Tool invocation is gated: every tool
    requires a meta.ucp-agent.profile URI, and an anonymous tools/call returns HTTP 422 with JSON-RPC error -32001.'
