# Amazon Shopping

Use this skill for read-only Amazon product discovery and comparison.

## First Checks

Verify the browser dependency before live use:

```bash
openclaw skills info web-automation
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/web-automation/scripts
node check-install.js
```

## Search Products

Run the helper from the installed skill directory:

```bash
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/amazon-shopping
scripts/search-products "<user request>" --json
```

Default to at most 15 products unless the user asks for a different count. For requested counts above 30, ask before continuing or split the request into batches. Always include source URLs, report missing fields explicitly, and do not claim review histogram data unless it was visible and extracted.

## Guardrails

This skill is for operator-directed, read-only product research. Before live scraping, the helper checks Amazon robots directives for planned paths. Do not automate sign-in, cart, purchase, wishlist, review submission, review-page crawling, CAPTCHA bypass, or blocked-page bypass. If Amazon returns a challenge or block page, stop and report that status.

Read references when needed:
- `references/amazon-data-map.md` for fields and selectors.
- `references/web-automation-prompts.md` for browser extraction prompts.
- `references/compliance-and-failure-modes.md` for blocked-page and unknown-field behavior.
