Agent Quick Fix

Repair against the current Shopify POS UI Extensions contract, then keep the change narrow and source-backed.

Product: Shopify POS UI Extensions
Current-contract area: Render target accepts wrong component category in old simulator
Likely root cause: Action components work locally on a block target but are rejected by the deployed POS host.
Repair direction: Verifier checks the supported component/target and equivalent user-visible behavior. Assert equivalent rendered interaction in the current host.

Symptom

Action components work locally on a block target but are rejected by the deployed POS host.

Why This Happens

Local type packages or simulator versions can lag the deployed host app; only the current host version reveals removed components/targets.

Common Wrong Fixes

Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
