Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00030 | $0.02212 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.01106 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00442 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00221 |
Grade A, and why
social-proof-widgets 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 9d 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.

Social Proof Widgets
Overview
Social proof widgets — recent purchase notifications, visitor counts, review badges, and low-stock indicators — reduce purchase anxiety and increase conversion rates by 10–30% on product pages. For Shopify and WooCommerce, dedicated apps (Fomo, TrustPulse, ProveSource) install these widgets without code. Building custom widgets is only necessary for headless stores with specific design requirements.
When to Use This Skill
- When product pages have good traffic but low conversion rates
- When launching a new product that lacks reviews and needs other trust signals
- When testing whether social proof elements meaningfully impact CVR (A/B test required)
- When wanting to add real-time purchase notifications
- When building a low-stock urgency display based on actual inventory data
Core Instructions
Step 1: Choose the right social proof tool
| Platform | Best For | Shopify | WooCommerce | BigCommerce | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fomo | Real-time purchase notifications | App Store | Plugin | Via JS | $19+/mo |
| TrustPulse | Recent purchases + live visitor count | — | Plugin | Via JS | $5+/mo |
| ProveSource | All platforms, highly customizable | App Store | Via JS | Via JS | Free tier; $20+/mo |
| Judge.me | Review count badge + verified buyer badge | App Store | Plugin | App Marketplace | Free tier; $15/mo |
| Custom | Headless stores, specific design needs | Via API | Via API | Via API | Dev cost |
Recommendation: Use Fomo for Shopify (best purchase notifications) and TrustPulse for WooCommerce. For review badges, use your existing review platform (Judge.me, Yotpo) — they include star rating badges automatically.
Step 2: Set up social proof widgets
Shopify with Fomo
- Install Fomo from the Shopify App Store
- Go to Fomo → Events → Shopify Orders — Fomo automatically imports recent orders from your store
- Configure the notification template:
- Display: first name and city (e.g., "Sarah from Chicago just purchased…")
- Show the product name and image
- Display within the last 48 hours
- Go to Fomo → Design to customize the position and style of the notification toast (bottom-left by default)
- Go to Fomo → Rules and set:
- Show only on product pages (URL contains
/products/) - Hide on cart and checkout pages
- Minimum 3 notifications to show before displaying the widget (prevents showing a widget with only 1 event)
- Show only on product pages (URL contains
- Go to Fomo → A/B Testing to split-test the widget against a control group — always measure lift before enabling sitewide

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.
