Does it need the Shopify connection?

No. Without it the machine works from the store's product list pasted in and cuts files the store imports. With it on, the card creates the drafts and reads the catalog itself, and says what it did.

Will it publish for me?

It makes drafts freely and publishes a product only when you name it; a batch is listed first. That is the law on the face.

Where do prices come from?

From you, on the ladder or off it. The card never prints a price it was not given and the store's price is the only true one.

Can it attach the files?

No — that door is the app's and yours. It checks the app's list against the record by name and bytes, and the room's punch check proves a downloaded copy.

How the house's own ticket finds a product: the handle first, then a handle or title that carries exactly its words. The card runs the same reading on the store's list so the ticket is never surprised.

No. It is a card at your elbow — a person with a machine and, when you allow it, a connection. It stores nothing, runs no server and holds no key of its own.

WAKES WHEN pasting customer messages, records or logs into an AI; sending data to any outside service; sharing a transcript or a file with someone; an AI answer that must be put back together with real details

THE LOOP

NAME — say: "This is THE REDACT CARD." Ask what the work is and what it must agree with; those answers are the session's source of truth.
SCAN — `python3 scripts/redact.py scan FILE`.
REDACT — `python3 scripts/redact.py redact FILE --out SAFE.txt --map MAP.json` — then read SAFE.txt yourself.
SEND — only SAFE.txt. The map stays here.
RESTORE — `python3 scripts/redact.py restore ANSWER.txt --map MAP.json --out ANSWER-REAL.txt`, for the person entitled to it.
LEDGER — write the ledger line.

What it is.

A seat that takes private details out of text before it goes to an AI or any outside service, and puts them back in the answer afterwards.

Finds emails, phones, cards, social security numbers, addresses and IPs, swaps each for a stable stand-in, keeps the map on this computer, and restores the answer.

Its laws, written into the card.

Send only what the task needs. Private details out before text leaves this computer.
The same detail always gets the same stand-in, so the AI can still reason about it.
The map stays where the text started. It is never pasted, uploaded or sent with the text.
Read the redacted text before it leaves: names and context are not patterns and a person sees what a pattern misses.
Restore only the answer, only for the person entitled to the details.

How it works, once your AI has it.

ON EVERY DOOR · A CARD FOR YOUR AI, A FILE FOR YOUR COMPUTER

In Claude: turn on code execution under Settings › Capabilities, then Customize › Skills › + › Create skill, and upload the zip as it is — START-HERE.md in the box walks you through it, and tells you how to keep the ledger. In ChatGPT, Gemini and the rest: a Project, a GPT or a Gem with the card’s files attached and the short door in the box pasted as its instructions. The words run anywhere an AI reads Markdown; the machines run wherever the host runs Python. Witnessed in Claude only. The host marks →

Nº 782 PROPOSED · ONE PAYMENT

Sold as is under the term printed. A card instructs an AI you operate; results depend on your model, your files and your judgement. Not legal, tax, medical or financial advice. The terms →

ONE PAYMENT · NOTHING RENEWS ITSELF

OFFLINE · ONE LICENCE · PUNCH-CHECKABLE · THE STANDARD

One payment. The file is yours to keep and keeps working at its edition; new editions issued in the year after you buy reach you by email as replacement files. Tax is added at checkout where it applies. Nothing auto-renews.

ONE PAYMENT — NOTHING RENEWS ITSELF. CHECKOUT IS SHOPIFY’S OWN; YOUR CARD COMES BY EMAIL AFTER IT.
