When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Supply chain security
  • Tasks that involve Paid advertising

Example prompts

  • “/supply-chain-optimization-shopify”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js
  • A credential in SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN
  • A credential in SHIPBOB_API_TOKEN

Workflow steps

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

  1. High CAC → Low ad efficiency, acquisition cost eating profit
  2. LTV/CAC < 3 → Customer value insufficient to support CAC
  3. High 3PL costs → Poor logistics choice
  4. Low repeat rate → Reliant on new customers, high cost
  5. Low gross margin → Cannot support ad spend

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ee0fb29. 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

    Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx
    • shopify

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • nexscope.ai

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN
    • SHIPBOB_API_TOKEN

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

Context cost

Supply Chain Optimization Shopify loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 200 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Bottleneck Diagnosis Focus

DTC-specific bottlenecks:

  1. High CAC → Low ad efficiency, acquisition cost eating profit
  2. LTV/CAC < 3 → Customer value insufficient to support CAC
  3. High 3PL costs → Poor logistics choice
  4. Low repeat rate → Reliant on new customers, high cost
  5. Low gross margin → Cannot support ad spend

DTC Health Formula

Net Profit = Price - Product Cost - Shipping - Payment Fee - Ad Spend - Ops Cost

DTC Golden Ratios:
├── Gross Margin > 60%
├── Ad Spend < 30%
├── Shipping < 15%
├── Net Margin > 15%
└── LTV/CAC > 3
