Verified steps

  1. Scaffold a cartTransform Function and ensure the extension TOML declares the `cart.transform` target; the update operation requires a Shopify Plus merchant or development store
  2. In `run.graphql`, query the cart lines including merchandise IDs, current prices, quantities, and any metafields that drive your pricing rules
  3. In your Function run handler, return an `UpdateOperation` for each line you want to reprice, specifying the `price` field with the new `Money` value (amount and currencyCode)
  4. You can also override `title` and `image` on the updated line to reflect a custom product presentation alongside the price change
  5. Return a no-op (empty operations array) for lines that do not meet the pricing condition to leave them unchanged
  6. Deploy and test: confirm the overridden price appears in cart and that checkout total reflects the Function-adjusted amount
