SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires ws.

What problem does it solve? Adding live chat to an e-commerce storefront involves choosing between platform-native apps and custom builds, wiring agent context like cart contents and order history, and measuring whether chat actually drives conversions. This Skill guides that decision and implementation so agents can answer pre-purchase questions, share product cards, and automate repetitive order-status queries. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Platform-Specific Setup: Step-by-step configuration for Shopify Inbox, Tidio, Gorgias Chat, and LiveChat across Shopify, WooCommerce, and BigCommerce. - Custom WebSocket Chat Server: TypeScript reference implementation with conversation context endpoints, cart state exposure, and an order-status auto-response bot for headless storefronts. - Proactive Triggers & ROI Measurement: Rules for high-intent page triggers and metrics like chat-to-conversion rate, revenue attribution, and first-response time. - Use Case: A Shopify merchant enables Shopify Inbox, configures instant answers for shipping questions, and sets a proactive trigger on the checkout page so agents can share product cards and apply discount codes during conversations. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to set up live chat for your storefront, for example: configure Shopify Inbox with automated order-status responses and a proactive checkout-page trigger.

Frequently Asked Questions about live-chat-commerce

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add live chat to a Shopify store?▼

Enable Shopify Inbox from Admin → Inbox, which installs a chat widget automatically and is free. Agents see the customer's cart, recent orders, and can share product links with prices directly from the chat interface.

What live chat tool works best for WooCommerce?▼

Tidio is recommended for WooCommerce; install it from the WordPress plugin directory and configure it under WooCommerce → Tidio. It shows agents cart contents, order history, and customer lifetime value, and supports automated order-status bot flows.

Shopify Inbox vs Tidio vs Gorgias Chat, which should I use?▼

Shopify Inbox is free and native, showing cart and order data out of the box. Tidio adds a more advanced AI bot and analytics, while Gorgias Chat suits teams already using Gorgias for support ticketing with a unified inbox.

When should I build a custom WebSocket chat server instead of using an app?▼

Build custom only when commerce-specific requirements exceed what apps offer, such as custom cart manipulation, proprietary bot logic, or a white-labeled experience. Platform apps handle the vast majority of live chat needs with no engineering work.

Why does the agent see stale cart data during a chat?▼

Cart context loaded once at conversation start goes stale because customers modify their carts mid-conversation. Refetch the cart on each incoming customer message so agents always see current contents.

How do I measure live chat conversion and revenue attribution?▼

Track chat-to-conversion rate by counting orders placed within 24 hours of a conversation, and tag attributed orders with source 'live_chat' using UTM parameters or platform order tagging. Also monitor average response time and post-chat CSAT scores.
