Requires WooCommerce plugin.
Description
When a single version of a product needs a quick change — put the Large on sale, restock the Blue one, fix a typo'd product code — editing it in the WooCommerce variation panel is fiddly. Easy MCP AI lets you just say what you want: 'set the sale price to $19.99 and stock to 25 on this variation' or 'end the sale on this one.' Only the things you mention change, so there's no risk of accidentally overwriting the rest of that variation. It's the fast way to handle the everyday tweaks — sales, restocks, product-code fixes, swapping a photo — without leaving your chat. Requires WooCommerce.
