Read https://sourceweft.com/skills/gh-goshippo-ai-shippo-best-practices/install.md and install the skill it describes. Before installing, show me its source, license and whether it ships scripts, and wait for my OK. Ask me before changing anything else on my machine.Install it yourself from a terminal
For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other local agents. The SourceWeft CLI fetches the skill from its source repository at the commit scanned here, and verifies every file against the hashes recorded when the skill was scanned. If anything differs, nothing is written.

Shippo Support Ticket
goshippo
Generate a complete, auto-classified, ready-to-paste Shippo support ticket for a single shipment or label. Use when a support agent or customer needs to escalate a shipping issue (lost/delayed package, unused-label refund, billing/rate adjustment, address exception, customs hold, carrier-account, or tracking-webhook problem). Given a tracking number + carrier, a transaction (label) ID, or a shipment ID, it classifies the issue, runs the right read-only Shippo MCP lookups, computes the triage timeline, and emits both a copy-paste support message and a routing-tagged JSON block so the ticket lands in the right pipeline first time.
