Dev builds an iMessage shopping agent that browses Shopify stores and buys for you

Over a weekend, a developer built a shopping agent on iMessage, optimized for browser use on Shopify stores, that finds deals and completes purchases.
Stack: built with @eve on the multi-tenant OpenInstinct template, plus @link wallet so the agent can actually pay. Text it what you want—say a sweater on sale—it searches the brand's store, sends back recommendations, and buys it in chat.
The bigger point: Agent as a Service (AaaS). Any workflow requiring research, reasoning, communication, or action—shopping, travel, finance, recruiting, sales—can be packaged as a monetized agent service.
