Does Hard Shell add Body Size to a Carnivore when it attacks, or give the attacker extra food?

The trait text says Hard Shell adds Body Size only when determining whether a Carnivore can attack it, and that it does not increase Meat Food taken.

No. Hard Shell only raises the Body Size of the species that has it when that species is attacked. A Carnivore with Hard Shell gets no bonus on its own attack, and the bonus does not raise the meat an attacker takes. It does protect a Carnivore that is attacked by a larger one.
