## What it does

The skill hands your agent ready-made code patterns for store work. It ships `CartItem` and `Cart` interfaces, a Zustand cart store persisted to localStorage, and a recalculation function for subtotal, tax, shipping and discounts. Stripe is covered too: creating a checkout session, a payment intent for custom checkouts, and a webhook handler for `checkout.session.completed`, `payment_intent.succeeded` and `payment_intent.payment_failed`.

On the frontend there is a React Stripe Elements example with `PaymentElement` and payment confirmation through `stripe.confirmPayment`. The skill triggers on keywords like e-commerce, shopping cart, checkout, payment and stripe, while words about games, mobile and desktop apps lower its priority — so it stays out of the way on those projects.

The code leans on `zustand`, `stripe` and `@stripe/react-stripe-js`, with keys read from environment variables: `STRIPE_SECRET_KEY`, `STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET`, `NEXT_PUBLIC_STRIPE_KEY`. Without them the examples will not run. Tax is set at 10% and shipping is free above a subtotal of 100 — those are template values, not advice for your store, so recalculate the rates for your own jurisdiction.

## Shopping Cart

### Cart State Management

```typescript
interface CartItem {
  productId: string;
  variantId?: string;
  quantity: number;
  price: number;
  name: string;
  image: string;
}

interface Cart {
  id: string;
  items: CartItem[];
  subtotal: number;
  tax: number;
  shipping: number;
  total: number;
  discountCode?: string;
  discountAmount: number;
}

// Zustand cart store
import { create } from 'zustand';
import { persist } from 'zustand/middleware';

interface CartStore {
  cart: Cart;
  addItem: (item: Omit<CartItem, 'quantity'>, quantity?: number) => void;
  updateQuantity: (productId: string, quantity: number) => void;
  removeItem: (productId: string) => void;
  clearCart: () => void;
  applyDiscount: (code: string) => Promise<void>;
}

const useCartStore = create<CartStore>()(
  persist(
    (set, get) => ({
      cart: createEmptyCart(),

      addItem: (item, quantity = 1) => {
        set((state) => {
          const existingIndex = state.cart.items.findIndex(
            (i) => i.productId === item.productId && i.variantId === item.variantId
          );

          const newItems = [...state.cart.items];
          if (existingIndex >= 0) {
            newItems[existingIndex].quantity += quantity;
          } else {
            newItems.push({ ...item, quantity });
          }

          return { cart: recalculateCart({ ...state.cart, items: newItems }) };
        });
      },

      updateQuantity: (productId, quantity) => {
        set((state) => {
          if (quantity <= 0) {
            return {
              cart: recalculateCart({
                ...state.cart,
                items: state.cart.items.filter((i) => i.productId !== productId),
              }),
            };
          }

          const newItems = state.cart.items.map((item) =>
