What it does

Shopify Admin Collection Membership Audit is an agent skill from 40RTY-ai/shopify-admin-skills. Read-only: lists orphan products (in zero collections) and over-collected products for catalog hygiene.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI

It sits in Backend & APIs. It works with Shopify. The repository describes itself as: Community-maintained AI agent skills for operating Shopify stores — workflows, optimization, reports and more. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Backend & APIs work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/shopify-admin-collection-membership-audit”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. OPERATION: products — query
  2. For each product: count collections → flag if 0 (orphan) or > max_collections (over-collected)
  3. OPERATION: collections — query (for collection names)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6765cb4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • shopify

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Shopify Admin Collection Membership Audit loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 334 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Purpose

Identifies products that are not in any collection ("orphans" — invisible in store navigation) and products that appear in an unusually high number of collections ("over-collected" — potential merchandising noise). Read-only — no mutations.

Prerequisites

  • Authenticated Shopify CLI session: shopify store auth --store <domain> --scopes read_products
  • API scopes: read_products

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultDescription
storestringyes—Store domain (e.g., mystore.myshopify.com)
max_collectionsintegerno10Flag products in more than this many collections
status_filterstringnoactiveProduct status to scan: active, draft, or all
formatstringnohumanOutput format: human or json

Safety

ℹ️ Read-only skill — no mutations are executed. Safe to run at any time.

Workflow Steps

  1. OPERATION: products — query Inputs: query: "status:<status_filter>", first: 250, select collections { edges { node { id } } }, pagination cursor Expected output: Products with their collection memberships; paginate until hasNextPage: false

  2. For each product: count collections → flag if 0 (orphan) or > max_collections (over-collected)

  3. OPERATION: collections — query (for collection names) Inputs: first: 250, select id, title, productsCount Expected output: Collection metadata for enriching the report

Session Tracking

Claude MUST emit the following output at each stage. This is mandatory.

On start, emit:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  SKILL: Collection Membership Audit          ║
║  Store: <store domain>                       ║
║  Started: <YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM UTC>             ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════╝

After each step, emit:

[N/TOTAL] <QUERY|MUTATION>  <OperationName>
          → Params: <brief summary of key inputs>
          → Result: <count or outcome>

On completion, emit:

For format: human (default):

══════════════════════════════════════════════
COLLECTION MEMBERSHIP AUDIT
  Products scanned:      <n>
  Orphan products (0 collections):     <n>
  Over-collected (> <max_collections>): <n>

  Orphan products (sample):
    "<title>" — <status>
  Output: collection_audit_<date>.csv
══════════════════════════════════════════════

For format: json, emit:

  "store": "<domain>",
  "products_scanned": 0,
  "orphan_count": 0,
  "over_collected_count": 0,
  "output_file": "collection_audit_<date>.csv"
}

Output Format

CSV file collection_audit_<YYYY-MM-DD>.csv with columns: product_id, title, handle, status, collection_count, collections, issue

Best Practices

  • Orphan active products are invisible in store navigation — customers can only find them via direct URL or search. Prioritize fixing these.
  • Automated collections (rule-based) may automatically pull products based on tags or conditions — an orphan in manual collections may still appear in automated ones. Check both.
  • Use max_collections: 5 for stores with a tightly curated navigation; use higher thresholds for marketplace-style stores where cross-listing is intentional.
  • Run after seasonal catalog refreshes to ensure all new products are assigned to the right collections.
