role: merchandising
description: "Read-only: scores each product on data completeness across description, images, SEO, weight, barcode, cost, and metafields."
toolkit: shopify-admin, shopify-admin-execution
api_version: "2025-01"
graphql_operations:
  - products:query
status: stable
compatibility: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI

Purpose

Calculates a data completeness score (0–100) for each active product based on the presence of key fields: description, images, SEO title, SEO description, variant weight, barcode, cost, and specified metafields. Produces a ranked list of products needing the most data work. Read-only — no mutations. Catalog health report in a single pass.

Prerequisites

• Authenticated Shopify CLI session: `shopify store auth --store <domain> --scopes read_products`
• API scopes: `read_products`

Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | store | string | yes | — | Store domain (e.g., mystore.myshopify.com) | | status_filter | string | no | active | Product status to score: `active`, `draft`, or `all` | | required_metafields | array | no | [] | List of `namespace.key` metafields that are required (e.g., `["custom.material"]`) | | format | string | no | human | Output format: `human` or `json` |

Safety

> ℹ️ Read-only skill — no mutations are executed. Safe to run at any time.

Scoring Rubric

| Field | Points | |-------|--------| | Description present (non-empty) | 15 | | At least 1 image | 15 | | SEO title present | 10 | | SEO description present | 10 | | At least 1 variant with barcode | 10 | | At least 1 variant with cost | 10 | | At least 1 variant with weight | 10 | | All required metafields present | 20 (split evenly) | | **Total** | **100** |

Workflow Steps

1. **OPERATION:** `products` — query **Inputs:** `query: "status:<status_filter>"`, `first: 250`, select all completeness fields, pagination cursor **Expected output:** Products with all scored fields; paginate until `hasNextPage: false`

2. Score each product per rubric; rank ascending by score

GraphQL Operations

# products:query — validated against api_version 2025-01
query ProductCompleteness($query: String!, $after: String) {
  products(first: 250, after: $after, query: $query) {
    edges {
      node {
        id
        title
        handle
        descriptionHtml
        images(first: 1) {
          edges {
            node {
              id
            }
          }
        }
        seo {
          title
          description
        }
        variants(first: 10) {
          edges {
            node {
              id
              barcode
              weight
              inventoryItem {
                unitCost {
                  amount
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
        metafields(first: 20) {
          edges {
            node {
              namespace
              key
              value
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
    pageInfo {
      hasNextPage
      endCursor
    }
  }
}

Session Tracking

**Claude MUST emit the following output at each stage. This is mandatory.**

**On start**, emit:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  SKILL: Product Data Completeness Score      ║
║  Store: <store domain>                       ║
║  Started: <YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM UTC>             ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════╝

**After each step**, emit:

[N/TOTAL] <QUERY|MUTATION>  <OperationName>
          → Params: <brief summary of key inputs>
          → Result: <count or outcome>

**On completion**, emit:

For `format: human` (default):

══════════════════════════════════════════════
PRODUCT DATA COMPLETENESS REPORT
  Products scored:  <n>
  Avg score:        <pct>/100
  Score < 50:       <n> products (need urgent attention)
  Score 50–79:      <n> products
  Score ≥ 80:       <n> products

  Lowest scoring products:
    "<title>"  Score: <n>/100  Missing: description, SEO title
  Output: completeness_<date>.csv
══════════════════════════════════════════════

For `format: json`, emit:

{
  "skill": "product-data-completeness-score",
  "store": "<domain>",
  "products_scored": 0,
  "avg_score": 0,
  "below_50_count": 0,
  "output_file": "completeness_<date>.csv"
}

Output Format

CSV file `completeness_<YYYY-MM-DD>.csv` with columns: `product_id`, `title`, `score`, `has_description`, `image_count`, `has_seo_title`, `has_seo_description`, `has_barcode`, `has_cost`, `has_weight`, `missing_metafields`

Error Handling

| Error | Cause | Recovery | |-------|-------|----------| | `THROTTLED` | API rate limit exceeded | Wait 2 seconds, retry up to 3 times | | No products match filter | Empty catalog or wrong filter | Exit with 0 results |

Best Practices

• Use this skill as a pre-launch gate — run before activating DRAFT products to ensure all required fields are filled.
• Tune `required_metafields` to your store's specific needs (e.g., `custom.material` for apparel, `custom.ingredients` for food).
• A score below 50 typically means a product is missing foundational content (description or images) and should be deprioritized from launch until fixed.
• Run monthly to track catalog quality trends over time; improvements after a content sprint should be visible in the average score.
