At a glance

Searches Amazon products and groceries, reads product pages and cart contents, and adds explicitly named items to cart, stopping short of checkout.

  • Searching Amazon for a product or grocery item
  • SKILL.md covers Action Index and Benchmarks
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Reading the details or current cart contents on Amazon

What it does

The skill is an index over five reference files, each covering one action on www.amazon.com: search for products or scoped grocery searches, product-data for details such as price, availability, seller, images and variants, grocery-storefront for Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods modules and deal cards, cart-data for reading cart contents and subtotal without changing anything, and add-to-cart for adding a selected item and quantity.

A real browser is recommended, and login plus a delivery location are needed for personalized grocery availability, cart contents, Past Purchases, Repeat Items and delivery slots. Add-to-cart is the only write action, and it never proceeds to checkout. The skill's own benchmark table compares token use and time against a no-skill browser agent for the search and product-data actions, with the grocery, cart and add-to-cart benchmarks still marked as planned.

When your agent uses it

  • Searching Amazon for a product or grocery item
  • Reading the details or current cart contents on Amazon
  • Adding a specific, user-named item to an Amazon cart

Example prompts

  • “Search Amazon for a stainless steel french press under $40.”
  • “Check what's in my Amazon Fresh cart right now and the subtotal.”
  • “Add two bags of the Kirkland coffee I searched for earlier to my cart.”

Requirements

  • A real browser session
  • An Amazon account login for personalized grocery and cart data

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 07855b5. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

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

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

Amazon.com Browsing Actions loads about 702 tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 137 tokens; SKILL.md has 257 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~137
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~702
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Use when the user wants to interact with Amazon.com — search products or groceries, inspect product detail pages, extract Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods storefront items, read the shopping cart, or add explicitly requested items to cart. Works on www.amazon.com. A real browser is strongly recommended; login and a delivery location are required for personalized grocery availability, cart contents, Past Purchases, Repeat Items, delivery slots, and checkout-adjacent pages. Write actions stop at cart changes and never place orders.

Amazon.com — Browsing Skill

Use this index to choose the Amazon.com action that matches the user request, then open only the linked reference file for the complete navigation, requirements, code, and return shape.

Action Index

  • search — Search Amazon product results, including normal shipped products and scoped grocery searches such as Amazon Fresh, then extract visible result cards. Full spec: references/search.md.
  • product-data — Extract details from a product page: title, price, availability, seller, delivery text, ratings, images, bullets, variants, and cart-button state. Full spec: references/product-data.md.
  • grocery-storefront — Extract visible Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods storefront modules, aisle/deal/navigation links, and grocery product cards from the current page. Full spec: references/grocery-storefront.md.
  • cart-data — Read the current Amazon cart or local-market grocery cart contents, subtotal, quantities, warnings, and checkout affordance without making changes. Full spec: references/cart-data.md.
  • add-to-cart — Add an explicitly selected item and quantity to cart, then return the visible confirmation/cart state. This is a write action and never proceeds to checkout. Full spec: references/add-to-cart.md.

Benchmarks

Benchmarks compare the maintained skill action against a no-skill browser agent that inspects the live page DOM and derives selectors at runtime. Full notes live in BENCHMARKS.md.
