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

demand-forecasting 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 11d 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.

Demand Forecasting

Overview

Demand forecasting uses historical sales data, seasonal patterns, and lead times to predict how much inventory you'll need and when to reorder. Chronic stockouts or overstock situations are usually a sign that reorder points are based on intuition rather than data. Purpose-built inventory planning tools handle this for most merchants — custom forecasting code is only necessary for unique operational requirements.

When to Use This Skill

  • When chronic stockouts or overstock situations indicate that current reorder points are set incorrectly
  • When building automated replenishment recommendations to reduce manual inventory review
  • When planning inventory for seasonal peaks (Black Friday, back-to-school, holiday season)
  • When you have 12+ months of sales history and want to extract meaningful demand patterns
  • When integrating with supplier lead times and purchase order workflows for end-to-end replenishment

Core Instructions

Step 1: Determine your platform and choose the right forecasting tool

Platform Recommended Tool Why
Shopify Inventory Planner (Shopify App Store) or Cogsy Inventory Planner connects directly to Shopify, analyzes 12+ months of sales history, calculates reorder points, and generates purchase orders
WooCommerce ATUM Inventory Management (free/premium) or Inventory Planner ATUM provides reorder point management natively in WooCommerce; Inventory Planner has a WooCommerce connector for advanced forecasting
BigCommerce Inventory Planner or Linnworks Both have BigCommerce native integrations and handle multi-location inventory forecasting
Multi-channel Skubana (now Extensiv) or Linnworks Handles inventory forecasting across Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon, and eBay from a single dashboard
Custom / Headless Build a time-series analysis layer on top of your order database Use moving averages, seasonal decomposition, and safety stock formulas against your historical sales data

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
