Ecommerce
Ecommerce demand centers on cart recovery, inventory sync and support tickets; payment/PII and order authority are the hard boundaries.

Demand atoms and workflow
Demand signal / validated demand
E — Catalogue signal: Recover abandoned carts, sync inventory, and handle support tickets.
U — Not established in this lane; no attributable industry denominator or repeated accepted-outcome receipt.
Atom join
Specification crosswalk: I — monitor_alert, follow_up_chase, sync_handoff, triage_route, report_digest
Industry model
Entities
States
observed → normalized → healthy | at_risk → needs_review → owner_acknowledged → resolved; order state remains source-owned
Terminal owner
ecommerce_operations_or_support_lead
Authority boundary
Read-only order, inventory, cart, and ticket views; no cart recovery message, order/payment change, fulfilment action, or refund.
Source of truth / exception paths
Source of truth: Commerce platform/order ledger plus inventory and support systems; payment provider is a separate authoritative boundary.
Exception paths: inventory race; duplicate order; payment pending; stale stock; PII access refusal; ticket/order mismatch
Discovery preparation
Precomputable context
- platform-detectable stack (storefront, payment, support, 3PL) from public site
- order/inventory/ticket state machines
- archetype fit (support + inventory ops)
- stack detection via public storefront fingerprinting is unusually strong here
Questions that must be asked
- inventory source of truth across locations/channels
- SLA targets and ticket taxonomy
- recovery-message consent and brand voice
- peak-season constraints
Contradiction risks
- 'inventory sync' stated as want while root cause is multi-channel ownership ambiguity
- support metrics vs actual queue reality
Observed repository matrix

Empty-cell gap matrix
The ten category cells retain both demand and supply state. NO_OBSERVED_DEMAND_SIGNAL means the research denominator is empty; it is not a claim that the workflow does not exist.

Open gaps
Intake and normalization
NO_OBSERVED_DEMAND_SIGNAL · 0 observed demand slots · 10 candidate repositories.
NOT_SEARCHED. Exact P03 source-kind coverage for form/portal intake; generic CRM or Stage 0 tags are not counted as intake coverage.
Records, extraction and audit
NO_OBSERVED_DEMAND_SIGNAL · 0 observed demand slots · 47 candidate repositories.
NOT_SEARCHED. Exact P03 document/record kinds; source-specific authority and provenance remain unqualified.
Classification and prioritization
NO_OBSERVED_DEMAND_SIGNAL · 0 observed demand slots · 39 candidate repositories.
NOT_SEARCHED. Exact P03 CRM/analytics/search candidates are adjacent supply, not proof of a classifier workflow.
Scheduling and coordination
NO_OBSERVED_DEMAND_SIGNAL · 0 observed demand slots · 14 candidate repositories.
NOT_SEARCHED. Exact P03 scheduling kind only; calendar UI alone is not a booking/authority proof.
Reporting and digest
NO_OBSERVED_DEMAND_SIGNAL · 0 observed demand slots · 15 candidate repositories.
NOT_SEARCHED. Exact P03 analytics kind; a reporting surface is not a measured client outcome.
Monitoring and alerts
ZERO_CANDIDATE_COVERAGE · 45 observed demand slots · 0 candidate repositories.
SEARCHED_DRY. No dedicated P03 capability kind is mapped; analytics is not silently promoted to monitoring.
Approval and controlled publishing
NO_OBSERVED_DEMAND_SIGNAL · 0 observed demand slots · 21 candidate repositories.
NOT_SEARCHED. Exact P03 approval/signing kinds; an approval-shaped product does not grant host authority.
Sync and browser operations
THIN_OR_PARTIAL_COVERAGE · 45 observed demand slots · 1 candidate repositories.
SEARCHED_DRY. Connector candidates cover a possible sync seam; no direct P03 browser-operation kind is available.
Safe-pilot boundary
Rationale
A read model can expose revenue-impacting exceptions without touching orders, payments, or customer communications.
Falsifier
Synthetic replay cannot distinguish stale inventory from real stock state, or claimed value depends on an outbound recovery action rather than accurate visibility.
