In plain English

awesome-ecom-skills is a collection of Markdown playbooks, called Agent Skills, built for AI assistants like Claude that help run a Shopify store's catalog. Shopify's own official toolkit gives an AI agent the technical ability to call its store API, but it does not teach the agent the judgment calls that come with real catalog work, such as which category ID is safe to assume and which one you must verify, or why leaving a spreadsheet cell blank during a bulk import can silently delete a piece of product data. This project fills that gap with nine skills distilled from real agency experience. Six of the nine skills form what the README calls the catalog cleanup suite, and they work together: one skill audits a store to find problems like missing photos, thin product descriptions, or odd pricing across a catalog too large to review by hand, and the other skills fix what it finds. These cover assigning the correct product category and its related metadata, archiving dead products and cleaning up leftover data, backfilling missing search engine titles and descriptions, writing image alt text, and safely handling bulk data imports and exports through a tool called Matrixify, including the specific pitfalls of that workflow. Three more skills handle turning old broken links into working redirects after a site migration, adding structured data to product pages without duplicating what the store theme already provides, and planning and building landing pages using a set of proven page templates. Because these skills are meant to direct an AI agent to actually change a live store, meaning archiving products, deleting metafields, or rewriting descriptions, the author is explicit that this is powerful and should be reviewed before use. Each skill is designed to preview its changes with a read only check first, default to the safest option such as filling in only missing data rather than overwriting existing data, and verify every change afterward by reading it back from the store's API. The project installs as a plugin for Claude Code and is released under the MIT license.
