Amazon Search Agent Skill

Amazon Product Search

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"searchapi","path":"/api/v1/search","query":{"engine":"amazon_search","q":"wireless earbuds"}}'

User: "Search for laptops under $500"

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"searchapi","path":"/api/v1/search","query":{"engine":"amazon_search","q":"laptop under 500"}}'

User: "Find highly rated coffee makers"

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"searchapi","path":"/api/v1/search","query":{"engine":"amazon_search","q":"coffee maker best rated"}}'

Error Handling

• 400 - Invalid engine name or missing q parameter
• 401 - Invalid API key
• 429 - Rate limit — wait and retry
• Empty organic_results array means no products matched the query — try broader search terms
• Use separate -q flags if & in query string causes issues: -q 'engine=amazon_search' -q 'q=wireless earbuds'
