## What it does

The skill splits a TikTok Shop launch into three stages: account setup, products and content, then growth through partnerships. Stage one covers the seller application, business verification, payment and tax settings, shipping templates and return policies. Then it moves to the catalog — titles and descriptions tuned for TikTok search, plus image and video requirements.

Stage three is content and creators. You get a posting calendar, a breakdown of video formats, a hashtag set and a plan for joining trends. The affiliate side covers commission structure, creator outreach, sample programs and performance tracking. Output is a roadmap with phase checklists, a content frequency table and targets for GMV, orders and creator partners at months 1, 3 and 6.

One catch: the skill runs without real-time data. Metric targets come from industry averages, and creator and trend research stays manual. Treat those numbers as planning anchors, not a forecast for your shop. Install runs through `npx skills add`.
