Most store operators don't need another dashboard. They need to ask a question in the language they already use — "which SKUs sold out this week?" — and get an answer from live data, then have the follow-up action happen without opening four tabs.

Answers questions against live store data, executes tasks against the Shopify Admin API, and schedules automations that recur without supervision.

Reaches other connected apps over MCP rather than through bespoke per-app integrations, so the set of things it can do grows without me writing a connector for each one.

Available where the operator already is: inside the Shopify admin, in Slack, or in Telegram.

Conversation and schedule state has to be consistent per store and survive between messages arriving from three different surfaces. A Durable Object per store gives single-threaded consistency and built-in alarms for the scheduling side, which is exactly the shape of the problem.
