description: 'HNI Corporation (NYSE: HNI) is a manufacturer founded in 1944 and headquartered in Muscatine, Iowa, built around
  two operating segments. Workplace Furnishings makes office seating, desks, storage, tables, panel systems and ancillary
  furnishings sold through independent dealers under the HON, Allsteel, Gunlocke, HBF and Kimball International brands. Residential
  Building Products is the hearth business, operated by Hearth & Home Technologies under the Heatilator, Heat & Glo, Majestic,
  Monessen, Quadra-Fire, Harman, SimpliFire and PelPro brands. HNI publishes no developer portal, REST API or OpenAPI for
  either segment. Its one public machine-readable surface is the agent-commerce stack on the Hearth & Home Technologies storefront
  at hearthnhome.com, which serves an llms.txt, a Universal Commerce Protocol merchant profile and an anonymous MCP endpoint
  exposing 13 catalog, cart and checkout tools.'

  description: The Hearth & Home Technologies storefront implements the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) over an anonymous
    Model Context Protocol endpoint. A tools/list probe on 2026-09-13 returned 13 tools — search_catalog, lookup_catalog,
    get_product, get_cart, create_cart, update_cart, cancel_cart, get_checkout, create_checkout, update_checkout, complete_checkout,
    cancel_checkout and get_order — each with a full JSON Schema inputSchema. Tool discovery is anonymous; tool execution
    requires a fetchable UCP agent profile URI and a Shopify agent JWT. The runtime is Shopify's platform UCP implementation
    served on HNI's own brand host against HNI's own catalog.
