THE PROMPT
Find all products that are out of stock. Check our orders from the last 12 months and tell me which of these products have not been in any order. Show me a list with the product name, SKU and the date it was last changed, and wait for my OK. Move only the products I approve to the trash. Do not delete anything for good, and leave alone any product that has sold in the last 12 months.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

What Happens When You Paste It

Your assistant picks the right abilities, pulls live data from your store and does the work. Here’s roughly how the conversation goes.

1
It reads first. Read abilities run straight away, so it’s working from your real catalog, not guessing.
2
It checks with you. Anything that writes to your store stops and asks before it goes ahead.
3
It’s all logged. Every ability call shows up in wp-admin, so you can see exactly what changed.
