SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Architects and product managers writing specs for SMB retail or e-commerce products often produce naive designs: flat product tables without variants, single-channel inventory that oversells, reorder logic without lead time, and pricing rules that break margin floors. This Skill injects the domain knowledge needed to spec storefront, inventory, pricing, and cart-recovery features correctly the first time. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Domain Vocabulary & Rules: Codifies SKU vs variant, reorder point math (demand × lead time + safety stock), ATS, COGS/landed-cost margin, MAP, and cart abandonment metrics. - Must-Model Entities: Defines the Product→Variant option matrix, channel-aware InventoryLevel, ReorderRule, PricingRule with margin floor, and AbandonedCart with consent/suppression. - Naive-Build Anti-Patterns: Flags the common failures — no variant model, single-channel inventory, reorder without safety stock, and cart recovery that ignores CAN-SPAM/TCPA/GDPR consent. - Use Case: When speccing a multichannel inventory feature for an SMB seller, apply this Skill to produce a Retail domain section in the ARCH/PLAN doc covering variant modeling, reorder-point math, and the Shopify wedge strategy. ## Quick Start Apply the vertical-retail skill while drafting the architecture spec for a multichannel inventory and cart-recovery product for an SMB seller.

Frequently Asked Questions about vertical-retail

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I model product variants in an e-commerce spec?▼

Model a Product as the parent with option axes (Size, Color) and a Variant per option combination, each with its own SKU, price, COGS, and stock. Option axes multiply combinatorially, so the data model and import flow must handle hundreds of variants per product.

How do I calculate a reorder point for inventory?▼

Reorder point equals average daily demand multiplied by supplier lead time in days, plus safety stock. Reordering on a simple threshold like "stock < 10" ignores lead time and causes stockouts before the purchase order arrives.

Should I build a storefront to compete with Shopify?▼

No — Shopify owns the storefront, so a me-too checkout loses. The wedge is its weak spots: multichannel inventory with reorder automation and cart recovery. Spec a competent owned storefront and differentiate elsewhere.

What compliance rules apply to abandoned cart recovery emails?▼

Cart recovery requires prior consent under CAN-SPAM, TCPA, and GDPR, plus honored unsubscribes, suppression lists, and quiet hours. Messaging without consent is illegal and damages deliverability; defer delivery mechanics to a lifecycle-messaging layer.

When should this retail domain skill not be used?▼

Do not apply it to non-commerce verticals or to heavy payments and tax work. Sales tax nexus calculation belongs to billing, PCI scope proof belongs to a pci-reviewer, and checkout should use Stripe-hosted elements to stay in SAQ-A scope.
