Problem

Small Shopify stores find out about trouble late. A big cash-on-delivery order from a first-time buyer looks like every other order in the admin. A staff discount code leaks to a coupon site and nobody notices for a week. One product quietly loses money once platform fees and shipping are counted. And many webhook automations trust any request that hits their URL, so a forged "order" can trigger real actions.

What we built

Verified order alerts (n8n): every webhook is checked with HMAC-SHA256 against Shopify's signature before anything runs. Forged, altered or unsigned requests get HTTP 401.
No double alerts: Shopify retries until it gets a 2xx; the workflow remembers recent event ids and skips repeats.
Alerts worth reading on Telegram and WhatsApp: high-value, cash-on-delivery, first-order and discount flags, items, ship-to and a direct admin link that keeps Shopify's 18-digit order id exact. Customer text is HTML-escaped.
Weekly exception report (Python skill pack) across Shopify, WooCommerce and Amazon exports: KPIs vs last week and the 4-week average, anomaly detection with what to check, and per-SKU profit after COGS, packaging, fees and fulfilment.

Honest notes

This is our own template and skill pack turned into a demo, not client work. Oarsman Coffee Co., its orders and its sales history are fictional.
The live demo runs the template's real Code nodes and a real HMAC check in the browser with a placeholder key. The report section shows the pack's actual output on its sample data. No AI model is called on the page.
AI tools helped write the code and this page. Every number above comes from our own test reports.
