Generate an XLSX inventory report with stock levels, reorder points, unit costs, and total value formulas for purchasing teams.
npx claudepluginhub iterationlayer/skills --plugin website-extractionThis skill uses the workspace's default tool permissions.
E-commerce platforms and warehouse management systems use this recipe to export current stock levels, reorder points, and inventory valuation to XLSX for purchasing teams. Define your product catalog with quantities and costs, and let formulas compute total value per item automatically.
Guides Payload CMS config (payload.config.ts), collections, fields, hooks, access control, APIs. Debugs validation errors, security, relationships, queries, transactions, hook behavior.
Builds scalable data pipelines, modern data warehouses, and real-time streaming architectures using Apache Spark, dbt, Airflow, and cloud-native platforms.
