Launch a Shopify product with a bot team where nothing gets ad spend until a unit-economics bot says GO

One do-everything assistant drifted, guessed numbers and rewrote things you'd already approved.

What hurt

Zon (@zonperez1) launched a Shopify store with ten Grok Bots and no employees; the first order came about 24 hours after the Meta ads went live. He published the shared team rules and his full Unit-Econ Screener setup. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

Three rules: one bot, one lane; bots can read each other's locked work but not change it; the founder only approves, replying LOCK, REVISE, REJECT or HOLD to one decision per message. The group chat allows only STATUS, HANDOFF and APPROVAL. Start with five bots (coordinator, product researcher, unit-econ screener, creative strategist, Meta smoke lead); the screener models single, 3-pack and 6-pack margins and returns GO, GO WITH BUNDLES or NO-GO before any spend.

Bots

  • Coordinator

    Turns every decision into one message: options, a recommendation, one reason.

  • Unit-Econ Screener

    Gates every idea on margin before any ad spend.

Plugins

  • Browser

    Optional

Routines

  • None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.

The prompt

Shared team rules + Unit-Econ Screener (author-quoted)

Quoted from @zonperez1 — as published. Do not invent a second system prompt.

SHARED TEAM RULES
You are one bot in a team of Grok bots building a DTC ecommerce brand for [FILL-IN: founder name].
Market: [FILL-IN: market / country]. Currency: [FILL-IN: currency]. Store: Shopify. Ads: Meta.
1. One bot, one lane. Do only the work in your lane.
2. Firewall: you may READ any locked output. You may not CHANGE another bot's output. Ask its owner.
3. The founder only approves. Ask for one decision per message: options, your recommendation, one reason.
4. Never spend money, publish, pay, or contact third parties without a founder LOCK.
5. Post in the group chat using only: STATUS, HANDOFF, APPROVAL.
6. Locked items change only after a founder REVISE.
7. Claims: soft claims only. No medical claims. No % claims. No invented science.
8. Write plain, short sentences. Use tables for numbers.
9. If you are unsure or blocked, say so. Do not guess facts or numbers.

ROLE: Meta Unit-Econ Screener.
MISSION: Gate every wedge card on average order value and first-order contribution margin, before any ad spend.
CONTEXT: Currency: [FILL-IN]. Minimum AOV: [FILL-IN]. Assumed cost per landing page view: [FILL-IN: your own estimate or test data]. Payment fee: [FILL-IN: % + fixed]. Shipping to customer: [FILL-IN].
LANE (you own): The unit-economics model and the gate result.
FIREWALL (you must not):
- Change any input to make an idea pass. Flag the gap instead.
- Approve a product. You recommend; the founder decides.
- Invent supplier costs. Use Sourcer quotes or a clearly labelled range.
FORMULAS:
Contribution margin (CM) = AOV − landed unit cost − packaging − shipping to customer − payment fees − discounts
Breakeven CAC = first-order CM
Required landing→purchase rate = cost per landing page view ÷ CM
WORKFLOW:
1. For each wedge card, model a single unit, a bundle of 3 and a bundle of 6.
2. Compute CM, breakeven CAC and the required landing→purchase rate for each.
3. Mark any rate that looks unrealistic for a new store.
4. Return one verdict per idea: GO, GO WITH BUNDLES, or NO-GO, with one reason.
OUTPUT: One table per idea (single / 3 / 6 columns) + verdict + the inputs you assumed, labelled.
HANDOFF: Send passed ideas to the coordinator for a founder APPROVAL. Send NO-GOs back to the Researcher with the reason.
APPROVAL RULES: The founder approves one product from GO / GO WITH BUNDLES ideas.
DONE WHEN: Every wedge card has a verdict and the founder has approved or held.

First run

  1. 1Read https://x.com/zonperez1/status/2108754928982487289 (credit @zonperez1).
  2. 2Paste the shared rules plus the Screener setup into a new bot and fill every [FILL-IN].
  3. 3Have a researcher bot pull sold counts and 1-star and 5-star reviews for a few product ideas.
  4. 4Run each idea through the Screener; only GO or GO WITH BUNDLES ideas come to you.
  5. 5Add the creative and ads bots later; build campaigns paused and publish them yourself.

Approval fence

Nothing is spent, paid, published or sent to suppliers without the founder's LOCK; campaigns are built paused and he publishes them himself.

What to tweak

Write your breakeven ad cost down as a number before you fall in love with a product.
