Amazon product research
Look up and search Amazon products — pricing, availability, overview data,
inline reviews, and search suggestions — all as normalized JSON from the
Crawlora API, with no HTML scraping.
When to use this skill
- "What does X cost on Amazon?" / "find this product on Amazon."
- "Search Amazon for X" and return candidate listings.
- "Look up this ASIN" / "get price and availability for B0XXXXXXX."
- "What does Amazon autocomplete suggest for this keyword?"
- Competitive pricing or catalog research scoped to Amazon.
Setup (one-time)
- Get a free Crawlora API key (2,000 credits/mo, no card) at https://crawlora.net.
- Set
CRAWLORA_API_KEY in the environment before running the helper.
- The helper reads
CRAWLORA_API_KEY from the environment and sends requests to https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1. Missing/invalid key → 401.
How it works
- Search —
/amazon/search with a keyword (k) to find candidate
products; paginate with page, sort with s.
- Detail —
/amazon/product/{asin} to fetch a specific product's
pricing, availability, overview data, inline review samples, and
descriptive content; optionally scope by currency/language.
- Suggest —
/amazon/suggest/{keyword} for Amazon's own typeahead
keyword suggestions, useful for discovering related search terms before
running a full search.
Full endpoint list, methods, and params: reference/endpoints.md.
Calling the API
# Search Amazon (GET, key=value params):
scripts/crawlora.sh /amazon/search k="standing desk" | jq '.'
# Product detail (ASIN is a path param):
scripts/crawlora.sh /amazon/product/B0XXXXXXX | jq '.data'
# Search suggestions (keyword is a path param):
scripts/crawlora.sh /amazon/suggest/standing | jq '.'
Use scripts/crawlora.sh for all requests; it keeps the API key out of command-line arguments.
Endpoint reference
See reference/endpoints.md for every Amazon
endpoint this skill uses (method, path, params, description).
Examples
- Price check by ASIN:
/amazon/product/{asin} and read price /
availability from the response.
- Keyword-to-listing pipeline:
/amazon/suggest/{keyword} to expand a
rough query into Amazon's own suggested terms, then /amazon/search on
the best ones to collect candidate listings.
- Catalog sweep: paginate
/amazon/search with page for a keyword,
collecting asin + price from each result to build a price snapshot.
Notes & limits

Key at https://crawlora.net.
- Public data only — public Amazon product/listing pages; respect Amazon's terms.
- Security: key lives in
CRAWLORA_API_KEY only — never hardcode, query-param, or commit it.
- Results are paginated — pass
page on /amazon/search to walk listings.
asin and keyword are path params (substituted into the URL), not
query params — pass them as the last path segment, e.g.
/amazon/product/B0XXXXXXX, not asin=B0XXXXXXX.- All endpoints target
amazon.com only.
