shopify-admin-dead-stock-identifierRead-only: cross-references inventory levels with order velocity to flag items with positive stock but zero sales in N days.
Shopify Admin Dead Stock Identifier is an agent skill from 40RTY-ai/shopify-admin-skills. Read-only: cross-references inventory levels with order velocity to flag items with positive stock but zero sales in N days.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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 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.
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6765cb4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Shopify Admin Dead Stock Identifier loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 405 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/shopify-admin-dead-stock-identifier/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).Identifies SKUs that have positive inventory on hand but have not sold any units in a configurable lookback window. Dead stock ties up capital, warehouse space, and carrying costs. Read-only — no mutations. Provides the data foundation for a markdown or clearance decision.
shopify store auth --store <domain> --scopes read_products,read_orders,read_inventoryread_products, read_orders, read_inventory| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| store | string | yes | — | Store domain (e.g., mystore.myshopify.com) |
| days_back | integer | no | 90 | Sales lookback window — SKUs with no sales in this period are flagged |

OPERATION: productVariants — query
Inputs: first: 250, query: <vendor_filter if set>, select sku, inventoryQuantity, inventoryItem { id }, pagination cursor
Expected output: All variants with stock levels; paginate until hasNextPage: false
Filter to variants with inventoryQuantity >= min_quantity
OPERATION: orders — query
Inputs: query: "created_at:>='<NOW - days_back days>'", first: 250, select lineItems { variant { id }, quantity }, pagination cursor
Expected output: All line items sold in the window to build a "sold variant IDs" set
OPERATION: inventoryItems — query
Inputs: Batch of inventoryItemIds for stocked variants
Expected output: Inventory item cost data for dead stock value calculation
Cross-reference: variants in step 2 that are NOT in the sold set from step 3 → dead stock

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Shopify Admin Dead Stock Identifier needs the command-line tools its instructions call (shopify). Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Shopify Admin Dead Stock Identifier is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.5k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
