## **PHASE 1 — Business Reconstruction 🔍** **Confirmed requirements** - Handmade skincare e-commerce store. - 12 products. - 3 primary product groups. - Indian market. - Shopify. - Online payment + COD. - Mobile-first shopping. - SEO and analytics required. **Assumptions** - Products are physical goods. - One-time purchases are the primary sales model. - No subscription system is required unless later specified. - Customer accounts are optional rather than mandatory. **Business decisions still required** - Exact shipping rates. - Free-shipping threshold. - COD availability by location. - Return/refund policy. - Exact payment provider. - Product inventory rules. The skill correctly requires confirmed requirements, assumptions, recommendations, and unresolved decisions to remain separated rather than inventing policies.
