Menu / browse OPEN API Peet's UCP MCP (Shopify Universal Commerce Protocol) Source — www.peets.com 2026-11-01

Official llms.txt ('Agent Instructions — Peet's Coffee') documents UCP product discovery via the MCP endpoint advertised at https://www.peets.com/.well-known/ucp (verified live 2026-11-01: catalog.search and catalog.lookup capabilities, MCP transport). SCOPE CAVEAT: this covers the peets.com retail catalog (packaged coffee, tea, merch), NOT made-to-order coffeebar drinks — the coffeebar menu at peets.com/pages/menu is human web/app, with coffeebar delivery via DoorDash/Uber Eats.

Door-state version census-2026-11-01. The same document is served as JSON by the API: api.agentoutposts.com/outposts/peetscoffee — and published in full on the Peet's Coffee Outpost page.

What an agent can do instead.

Legal alternatives for this task, from the Options Registry.

Nothing fits today. No other business in the Coffee category has an open or partner-gated door for menu / browse in the census, so there is no sanctioned alternative to offer. That is exactly the case the registry below exists for: register the intent, take the receipt, and the demand is logged where the Peet's Coffee team can see it in aggregate.

The open door.

Peet's Coffee is an Industry Leader — its door for agents is open, so there is no registry here, because there is no wall.

Peet's UCP MCP shopping endpoint (Shopify Universal Commerce Protocol). Self-serve through the MCP endpoint advertised in Peet's official llms.txt and its /.well-known/ucp profile (catalog search/lookup, cart, checkout, order capabilities). Agents must identify as agent-initiated under the llms.txt rules, and checkout completes only with buyer authorization (Shop Pay / card handlers). Retail store only — not coffeebar drinks.

Peet's coffeebar — app / web, delivery via DoorDash and Uber Eats. Made-to-order coffeebar drinks have no agent door: the coffeebar menu is human web/app, Order Ahead is app-only, and coffeebar delivery runs through DoorDash and Uber Eats.

The verified door-state document is served as JSON by the API: api.agentoutposts.com/outposts/peetscoffee. A POST to the intent endpoint records nothing — it returns this pointer (status door_open) — because the demand ledger counts demand only where a wall keeps agents out.

No demand registry at Peet's Coffee.

The door is open — there is nothing to count.

Agent Outposts keeps a demand registry only where a wall keeps agents out. At Peet's Coffee, an agent goes straight in, so no intents are collected, no queue forms, and no demand count is published for this listing. If this door ever closes, this listing converts into a demand registry and the counting starts.
