Gmail and Shopify, joined per conversation
CaseKit does not sync your mailbox into Shopify or pull your orders into Gmail. It resolves one order for the one conversation you have open, then gets out of the way.
What happens on each conversation
Reads the open conversation
A content-script adapter reads the conversation rendered on your screen: sender address, subject and message text. Not your mailbox.
Resolves against Shopify
The minimum context needed goes to CaseKit's backend, which queries your connected store read-only and returns the order state.
Writes only on request
Nothing enters the composer until you press Insert Reply, and nothing is ever sent.
Why not a Gmail API integration?
Because the restricted scopes that give a tool full mailbox access are a large ask for a feature that only ever needs the conversation on screen.
The Gmail MVP avoids Gmail API restricted scopes. The extension reads what is already rendered in front of you, which keeps the access request proportionate to what the feature does.
