## The prompt

```text
Show me which ways to earn loyalty points are on in my store and how many points each one gives. Also show my redemption ratio so we know what a point is worth. Then suggest points for product reviews, new account signups and first orders that are worth something to the customer but cheap for me. Show me the plan and wait for my OK. After I approve, turn on those rules with the points we agree, and turn on the customer email for each one.
```
