No request rate limit or idempotency key was found in the API documentation, Adobe publishes no MCP server for Commerce, and a licence starts with a sales order.\n\n**WooCommerce API + MCP.** Free GPL software with no platform fee or revenue share. Uptime, speed and security depend on each store's host and plugins. No vendor status page.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Adobe Commerce (Magento)\n\n1. Ask which deployment the store is. The cloud service answers at `https://\u003cserver\u003e.api.commerce.adobe.com/\u003ctenant-id\u003e/` with no `/rest` prefix, and other stores at `https://\u003chost\u003e/rest/\u003cstore-view-code\u003e/`\n2. On the cloud service, request an IMS token with the `commerce.accs` scope and send the `Store` header to pick the store view\n3. On a 2.4 store, sign requests with all four integration credentials by OAuth 1.0a. A bare integration token is refused unless the merchant has switched that on\n4. Add `?fields=` to REST calls and set `searchCriteria[pageSize]`. Stores with input limits on cap a page at 300 items\n5. Don't retry `placeOrder` or a POST blindly. Read the cart or order back first, because no idempotency key was found\n\n### WooCommerce API + MCP\n\n1. Create a REST key with read permission only for reporting tasks, and send it in the Authorization header, never the URL\n2. Get a Cart-Token with GET /wp-json/wc/store/v1/cart and send it on every cart and checkout call instead of a nonce\n3. Add `_fields=id,name,price` to REST calls to cut response size\n4. Page with per_page up to 100 and stop at X-WP-TotalPages\n5. Product delete only trashes unless you pass force true, so check the trash before assuming it's gone\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Adobe Commerce (Magento) or WooCommerce API + MCP?\n\nWooCommerce API + MCP scores 72.9 (BB) on agent readiness against Adobe Commerce (Magento)'s 63.9 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories.
