## FAQ

<details>
<summary>How do I run an audit in GitHub Actions?</summary>

The GitHub task runs the Comprehensive Shopify Audit with Store Skills Pro. From a private theme repository, run `npx glue-fast@0.3.0 init-ci brickspacelab/storeskills --site https://glue.fast`. Follow the runner setup to configure a reachable storefront or preview URL and the repository secrets. Same-repository pull requests and manual runs produce an audit summary and a downloadable JSON report. [GitHub runner setup](https://github.com/BrickspaceLab/storeskills-action#setup-the-workflow)

</details>

<details>
<summary>How do I update an existing installation?</summary>

For a new installation, use the installation options at the top of this page, then ask your agent to verify the Store Skills package identity, installed version, and availability of the skill you want to use.

A package update installs a newer release of Store Skills. An upgrade to Pro changes access to paid skills; it is a separate action, subject to checkout availability.

1. Check your host's installed-plugin inventory for the Store Skills source and installed version. Compare it with the release offered by the same source, when that information is available. If multiple installations appear, identify the one your chat is using before updating.
2. Use that host's supported plugin update flow for the selected installation. Afterward, verify its package identity and installed version again. If the available release cannot be checked, report that uncertainty instead of claiming the installation is current.
3. Resolve the requested skill from the host's current skill inventory. Open its `SKILL.md` and required references from the resolved installation before resuming work.

A downloaded package alone does not establish that the current chat can use it. If the requested skill is missing or still resolves to the old installation, follow the host's documented reload or new-chat steps and verify again. Report the installed version, resolved skill and any remaining registration blocker separately.

Your agent host and installation source control update availability, notifications and registration refresh. This guidance does not make an update notification appear during installation.

</details>

<details>
<summary>What if my chat keeps using an older skill path?</summary>

An earlier chat may reference a versioned cache path. Ask your agent to resolve the skill from its current inventory and verify the installation source and version. Use the stable skill name in reusable prompts, such as `$storeskills:edit-shopify-json` where your host supports that notation, rather than copying an absolute cache path. Keep required references within the same resolved installation.

You can paste this verification request after installing or updating:

```text
Verify my Store Skills installation. Report its source, package identity and installed version, and compare with the release offered by that source if available. Resolve edit-shopify-json from your current skill inventory and open its SKILL.md and required references. Tell me whether this chat can use that installation, or identify the host reload or registration step still needed. Do not claim success from a download alone.
```

If the host cannot expose its inventory or version, name what could not be verified. Preserve existing installations and local edits; do not delete caches or replace another installation as a recovery shortcut.

</details>

<details>
<summary>What exactly is a skill?</summary>

A skill gives your agent task-specific instructions and references. Store Skills supplies the Shopify procedures; your agent host supplies the tools.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Will an audit change my store?</summary>

No. Audit workflows collect evidence and recommend actions. Editing, uploads, experiments, and publication are separate actions that require appropriate authorization and capabilities.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Do I need Shopify admin access?</summary>

The Core audit needs a live storefront URL and browser control. Other workflows may need Shopify access, a theme repository, or analytics. Missing evidence blocks only the checks that depend on it.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Which agents can I use?</summary>

Native packages support Codex and Claude Code; other capable agents can use the portable instructions. Each skill still needs its listed browser, integration or execution capabilities.

</details>

<details>
<summary>What happens if a check cannot be completed?</summary>

The report names the affected Check and missing evidence. Incomplete work never counts as a pass.

</details>

<details>
<summary>What does Pro unlock?</summary>

Pro adds the Comprehensive Shopify Audit with 600+ checks and its full audit procedures. The checks stay on Glue: your agent reads them over the Store Skills MCP connection while you are signed in. They are not copied into your installation and are not published on the Store Skills website. Free includes the fifteen-check Core audit and the other published reporting, planning, editing, preview, and drafting skills.

Paid checkout is disabled for the initial Glue launch. The free Core audit remains available.

</details>

<details>
<summary>What is Glue?</summary>

[Glue](https://glue.fast/) publishes versioned skills and documentation from GitHub repositories. Use it to install Store Skills and access published instructions.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Do I need Glue to use Store Skills?</summary>

No. You can run Store Skills in Codex, Claude Code, or any other agent with the tools required by the selected skill. Glue provides versioned installation and access to the published skills. Your agent runs the audit and saves its report and evidence.
