Questions for this workflow
Can Claude tell me whether a discount is margin-safe?
Yes, if you supply the complete cost and fee inputs plus the contribution target. Claude should expose the formula, test representative baskets, and label missing values. The result is planning evidence; an operator still verifies the inputs and the configured promotion before launch.
What context should I provide first?
Start with price, product cost, fulfillment cost, fees, and target contribution by item or basket. Then add the proposed discount, eligibility, threshold, exclusions, and stacking behavior. Keep the source material current, remove sensitive information that is not needed, and tell Claude which facts are verified so gaps remain visible instead of being filled by assumption.
What should I review before acting on the result?
Review the source facts, assumptions, calculations, and any marked gaps behind this deliverable: A transparent promotion model and launch calendar that can be checked before platform setup begins. Compare it with the live system or responsible teammate, and check before approving any action.
