  • Looking up an Amazon product's title and price by ASIN
  • SKILL.md covers 📖 Introduction, ✨ Features, 🔑 API Key Setup and 🛠️ Input Parameters, plus 4 more sections
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python; needs BROWSERACT_API_KEY

What it does

Give the agent an ASIN and it runs the bundled Python script, amazon_asin_lookup_api.py, which calls a BrowserAct template and returns product data: title, price, ratings and review count, brand, description and features, images and specifications, and availability. The ASIN is the only required input, for example B07TS6R1SF.

A BrowserAct API key must be present in the BROWSERACT_API_KEY environment variable. If it is missing, the agent asks you to get one from the BrowserAct console and waits instead of trying workarounds. The task drives a browser and can take several minutes, so the script prints timestamped status lines. The agent should keep watching them and consider a retry only when the output stops changing or ends without a result.

When your agent uses it

  • Looking up an Amazon product's title and price by ASIN
  • Checking ratings, review count or availability for a listing
  • Enriching a product catalog with Amazon data
  • Monitoring price changes for specific ASINs

Example prompts

  • “Get the title, price and rating for ASIN B07TS6R1SF.”
  • “Check whether B07TS6R1SF is in stock and what it costs right now.”
  • “Pull the brand, material and feature list for the ASINs in asins.csv and put them in a table.”

Requirements

  • A BrowserAct API key in the BROWSERACT_API_KEY variable
  • Python, to run the bundled script
  • Network access to BrowserAct

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. No Hallucinations: Pre-set workflows avoid AI generative hallucinations, ensuring stable and precise data extraction.
  2. No Captcha Issues: No need to handle reCAPTCHA or other verification challenges.
  3. No IP Restrictions: No need to handle regional IP restrictions or geofencing.
  4. Faster Execution: Tasks execute faster compared to pure AI-driven browser automation solutions.
  5. Cost-Effective: Significantly lowers data acquisition costs compared to high-token-consuming AI solutions.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 11c057b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • browseract.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • BROWSERACT_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Amazon ASIN Lookup loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 182 tokens; SKILL.md has 652 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~182
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Amazon ASIN Lookup Skill

📖 Introduction

This skill utilizes BrowserAct's Amazon ASIN Lookup API template to provide a seamless way to retrieve comprehensive product information from Amazon. By simply providing an ASIN, you can extract structured data including title, price, ratings, brand, and detailed descriptions directly into your application without manual scraping.

✨ Features

  1. No Hallucinations: Pre-set workflows avoid AI generative hallucinations, ensuring stable and precise data extraction.
  2. No Captcha Issues: No need to handle reCAPTCHA or other verification challenges.
  3. No IP Restrictions: No need to handle regional IP restrictions or geofencing.
  4. Faster Execution: Tasks execute faster compared to pure AI-driven browser automation solutions.
  5. Cost-Effective: Significantly lowers data acquisition costs compared to high-token-consuming AI solutions.

🔑 API Key Setup

Before running, check the BROWSERACT_API_KEY environment variable. If not set, do not take other measures; ask and wait for the user to provide it. Agent must inform the user:

"Since you haven't configured the BrowserAct API Key, please visit the BrowserAct Console to get your Key."

🛠️ Input Parameters

The agent should configure the following parameters based on user requirements:

  1. ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number)
    • Type: string
    • Description: The unique identifier for the Amazon product.
    • Required: Yes
    • Example: B07TS6R1SF

🚀 Usage

The agent should execute the following script to get results in one command:

bash
# Example Usage
python -u ./scripts/amazon_asin_lookup_api.py "ASIN_VALUE"
⏳ Execution Monitoring

Since this task involves automated browser operations, it may take some time (several minutes). The script will continuously output status logs with timestamps (e.g., [14:30:05] Task Status: running). Agent Instructions:

  • While waiting for the script result, keep monitoring the terminal output.
  • As long as the terminal is outputting new status logs, the task is running normally; do not mistake it for a deadlock or unresponsiveness.
  • Only if the status remains unchanged for a long time or the script stops outputting without returning a result should you consider triggering the retry mechanism.

📊 Data Output

Upon success, the script parses and prints the structured product data from the API response, which includes:

  • product_title: Full title of the product.
  • ASIN: The provided ASIN.
  • product_url: URL of the Amazon product page.
  • brand: Brand name.
  • price_current_amount: Current price.
  • price_original_amount: Original price (if applicable).
  • price_discount_amount: Discount amount (if applicable).
  • rating_average: Average star rating.
  • rating_count: Total number of ratings.
  • featured: Badges like "Amazon's Choice".
  • color: Color variant (if applicable).
  • compatible_devices: List of compatible devices (if applicable).
  • product_description: Full product description.
  • special_features: Highlighted features.
  • style: Style attribute (if applicable).
  • material: Material used (if applicable).

⚠️ Error Handling & Retry

If an error occurs during script execution (e.g., network fluctuations or task failure), the Agent should follow this logic:

  1. Check Output Content:

    • If the output contains "Invalid authorization", it means the API Key is invalid or expired. Do not retry; guide the user to re-check and provide the correct API Key.
    • If the output does not contain "Invalid authorization" but the task failed (e.g., output starts with Error: or returns empty results), the Agent should automatically try to re-execute the script once.

  2. Retry Limit:

    • Automatic retry is limited to one time. If the second attempt fails, stop retrying and report the specific error information to the user.

🌟 Typical Use Cases

  1. Product Data Enrichment: Retrieve full details for a list of ASINs to update an e-commerce database.
  2. Price Comparison: Lookup current Amazon prices for specific ASINs to compare with other retailers.
  3. Review Monitoring: Track changes in rating averages and review counts for key products.
  4. Availability Checks: Automatically verify if a specific product is currently in stock on Amazon.
  5. Brand Analysis: Identify the brand and manufacturer of products identified by ASIN.
  6. Detailed Specifications: Fetch material, style, and color information for catalog management.
  7. Feature Highlighting: Extract "special features" and detailed descriptions for marketing copy.
  8. Compatibility Verification: Check "compatible devices" for electronics or accessories.
  9. Market Research: Analyze featured badges like "Amazon's Choice" for specific product IDs.
  10. URL Resolution: Convert a list of ASINs into full Amazon product page URLs.
