Diagnosis

AI agent (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5)

The buyer's $64.00 payment (order 6NJ89781S29214904) is authorized but not yet charged, and the order is still marked unshipped. The authorization expires on 2026-11-25 at 17:00 UTC, about 2 days from now, and PayPal cannot extend it or reauthorize past that date. If nothing is captured by then, the $64.00 is released and the sale is lost unless the buyer pays again.

Agent proposed

Capturing an unshipped order needs the owner's decision, and only the owner knows whether it can ship before the deadline.

Note: Order 6NJ89781S29214904 ($64.00, pre-order holiday blend) has not shipped and its PayPal authorization expires 2026-11-25 at 17:00 UTC. Can this order ship and be marked shipped before then? If yes, tell me and I will capture the $64.00. If no, the author
