## The prompt

```text
For my [feed name] feed, show me the filters and rules it already has. I want to: [list, for example exclude products priced under $10, exclude the Clearance category, add the brand to the start of every title]. Turn each one into a filter or rule and show me exactly what you will add. Wait for my OK, then add them, regenerate the feed and tell me how the product count changed.
```

## What happens when you paste it

You: For my [feed name] feed, show me the filters and rules it already has…

Assistant: Feed "Google Shopping US" has 1 filter that excludes out of stock products, and no rules. It currently carries 1,284 products. Calling: `adtribes/get-feed`, `adtribes/add-filter-rule`, `adtribes/regenerate-feed`, `adtribes/get-feed-stats`.

Assistant: This will make changes in WooCommerce. Do you want me to go ahead?

Assistant: Added 2 exclude filters and 1 rule that puts the brand before the title. After regeneration the feed carries 1,197 products, 87 fewer than before.
