## What it does

The skill gives your assistant a working framework for dropshipping on Shopify. It looks at how the store is set up now, finds what can be improved, and returns recommendations drawn from common industry practice. What you get is guidance and step-by-step plans, not executable scripts.

Output covers an assessment of the current state, action items ranked from quick wins to long-term work, a comparison of tools and apps with their costs, an implementation timeline, and the KPIs to watch. Handy when you need to decide where scaling should start and whether a given app earns its subscription.

One limit matters: the skill does not talk to the Shopify API. Advice comes from general best practices, so check it against your own sales and inventory numbers before changing anything. That is worth doing anyway.
