Z9GO is the federated affiliate product library — the catalog core — for the storefront network. It is operated by Steve Simonson. It is not a consumer shop and it is not a public product catalog.
One library. Many storefronts.
Shared product identity lives once: network, external id, and marketplace. Each storefront keeps its own house names, slugs, and selection. The core dispatches what is allowed to go; shops do not scrape the marketplace from a datacenter and call that health.
What you will find here
The public site is a dispatch plate: the thesis, the operating principles, and operator sign-in. The useful work — catalog memory, network links, and health — begins after an allowed session. Library reads and writes stay behind authentication.
Affiliate network
The library exists so affiliate storefronts can share facts and retire dead listings without copying a catalog into every repo. As an Amazon Associate, the network may earn from qualifying purchases on retailer sites. Associate tags stay in site configuration, never on the shared item row.
