## What it does

The skill structures recovery plans for abandoned carts in Shopify stores. It covers checkout friction audits and triggered email sequences. Recommendations come as phased action items with implementation timelines and target KPIs.

It also compares third-party apps, evaluating features alongside pricing. This tool operates purely as an advisory framework. It lacks direct Shopify API access, so you must input store metrics manually. The beta status means you get strategy, not automated code execution.
