Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cross-sell-upsell-engine scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Cross-Sell and Upsell Engine

Overview

Cross-sells and upsells generate 10–30% incremental revenue with minimal customer acquisition cost. Every major e-commerce platform has apps that handle the recommendation logic without custom code. The key decisions are: which placement to start with (PDP, cart, or post-purchase), what recommendation logic to use (manual bundles vs. algorithm-based), and how to avoid checkout friction. Start with one placement and measure before expanding.

When to Use This Skill

  • When average order value (AOV) is below industry benchmarks and you want to grow it without paid traffic
  • When launching a new recommendation widget on PDP, cart, or checkout pages
  • When replacing a generic "You may also like" carousel with affinity-based personalization
  • When building a bundle builder or "complete the look" feature
  • When wanting to A/B test recommendation placements

Core Instructions

Step 1: Choose the right tool for your platform

Platform Recommended Tool Why
Shopify Rebuy (most powerful) or Frequently Bought Together Rebuy uses AI-based recommendations with multiple placement types; FBT is simpler and cheaper for basic "people also bought"
Shopify (Plus) Rebuy + Shopify Functions Shopify Functions allows custom cart transforms for bundle discounts
WooCommerce WooCommerce built-in cross-sell/upsell + YITH WooCommerce Frequently Bought Together WooCommerce has native upsell and cross-sell fields on every product; YITH adds the "FBT" widget
BigCommerce Also Bought or Boost Commerce (App Marketplace) Both integrate natively with BigCommerce product catalog
Custom / Headless Rebuy API or Recombee Both offer recommendation APIs; Rebuy integrates directly with Shopify/BigCommerce backends

Step 2: Decide on placement — start with one

Placement Expected AOV Lift Conversion Risk Start Here?
Product page (below Add to Cart) Moderate Low Yes — best starting point
Cart page (sidebar or bottom) High Low Yes — high intent, low friction
Post-purchase page High None (order already placed) Yes — zero risk to conversion
Checkout page High Medium-High No — test this last; can hurt CVR
