Category Re-Noding Fix

Amazon periodically re-organizes the browse tree and silently moves products to new nodes. A listing moved to the wrong node loses 30-70 percent of its organic search visibility overnight, because Amazon scores it against the wrong query set. This skill finds the wrong placement and writes the correction case.

When to use this

• Sales dropped sharply on a listing without a known cause.
• A listing should rank for a category but does not appear in its filters.
• Recently received a notification that a product was re-categorized.
• Routine quarterly browse-tree audit.
