Update product
Change a product name, status, price, sale price or stock.
MCP tool woocommerce_write → update_product
write Confirm
Updates one product. Change the regular price or the sale price, switch the status between draft, pending, private and publish, or set the stock quantity with manage_stock. Prices are strings in the store currency, and an empty sale_price ends the sale. A published product changes on your storefront at once, so the call is treated as reaching your customers. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
