# amazon-category-ungating Walks you through Amazon category and brand ungating: requirements, paperwork, appeals. Useful when a listing hits a category restriction. - skill · `type=skill` · Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode · 1100 installs · ★ 805 - Author: nexscope-ai - License: MIT · policy=mirror · the beginning of the file is at the end of this page - Source: https://github.com/nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills/tree/HEAD/amazon-category-ungating/SKILL.md - Updated: 2026-08-26 - HTML: https://affpapa.org/en/nevibecode/skills/amazon-category-ungating ## What it does The skill covers ungating for Amazon categories and brands. It lays out what the marketplace asks for, which documents to gather, and how to appeal a rejection. A guide to restricted categories is included. It supports Amazon marketplaces including US, UK, DE, CA, JP and AU. How it runs: it pulls the product, platform and current situation from your message, then asks one follow-up question in multiple-choice form. Short answers like "1b 2c 3a" are fine. From there it works through its methodology and returns a findings summary, specific data points and a prioritized action list. Estimates built on incomplete data get flagged with ⚠️. Worth installing if you have already been rejected or are preparing an application early. The skill does not submit anything for you and cannot promise approval — Amazon decides that, so the appeal still has to follow its own rules. ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills --skill amazon-category-ungating -a claude-code ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `~/.claude/skills/amazon-category-ungating/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/amazon-category-ungating/ ### Codex 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills --skill amazon-category-ungating -a codex ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.agents/skills/amazon-category-ungating/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/ ### Cursor 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills --skill amazon-category-ungating -a cursor ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.cursor/skills/amazon-category-ungating/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/ ### GitHub Copilot 1. **GitHub CLI** ```bash gh skill install nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills amazon-category-ungating ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.github/skills/amazon-category-ungating/SKILL.md` ### Gemini CLI 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills --skill amazon-category-ungating -a gemini-cli ``` 2. **Platform CLI** ```bash gemini skills install https://github.com/nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills --path amazon-category-ungating ``` ### Windsurf (Devin Desktop) **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.devin/skills/amazon-category-ungating/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works ### OpenCode **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills --skill amazon-category-ungating -a opencode ``` ### Claude.ai **Claude.ai** - Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/nexscope-ai/Amazon-Skills/tree/HEAD/amazon-category-ungating/SKILL.md ## When to use it - map Amazon's requirements for a gated category - assemble the document set for an ungating application - draft an appeal after a rejection - figure out what brand ungating takes - check a category against the restricted list ## Example prompts - Help me with Amazon category ungating for my store - What documents does Amazon require to ungate this category? - Draft an appeal plan — Amazon rejected my brand application ## Source text · SKILL.md · MIT Below is the content of a third-party file.
