etsy

etsy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AgentComputerAI/torch. It costs 130 tokens per session (2,861 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A scraping guide for Etsy search pages, which show listings matching a search query. It explains how to load and parse those pages through a real Chrome session when Etsy’s anti-bot protection blocks basic requests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to collect Etsy search-result listing data, including listing and shop details, from pages such as /search?q=... .
Why use it?
It addresses the 403 errors and challenge pages returned to simple command-line requests, without requiring a login, proxy, or CAPTCHA-solving service.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

etsy scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 179 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Etsy (etsy.com)

Etsy search is a server-rendered listing grid wrapped in a DataDome shield. The shield only enforces on naive clients — a real Chrome session clears it transparently. Once you have the HTML, parsing is trivial cheerio work against class-stable selectors.

Detection

Signal Value
Server Fastly + Varnish (via: 1.1 varnish, x-fastly-backend-reqs)
Framework Server-rendered HTML (legacy Etsy stack, not Next.js)
Anti-bot DataDome (x-datadome: protected, x-datadome-riskscore, datadome cookie)
Curl result HTTP/2 403 + ~800-byte captcha shell (<title>etsy.com</title> + var dd={…} JS blob)
Real-Chrome 200 OK, full HTML (~1.7 MB), no challenge — first navigation
robots.txt Disallows /search for most bots, but the playbook is a Chrome session, not a crawler pretending to be Googlebot
Auth required No (anonymous search works)

Architecture

  • /search?q=<query> returns fully server-rendered HTML. No hydration-dependent JSON blob is needed.
  • Each listing is a <div class="listing-link …" data-listing-id="…" data-shop-id="…"> wrapper. ~60 per page (24 are rendered eagerly; a gentle scroll surfaces ~36 more lazy tiles).
  • Inside each card:
    • h3.v2-listing-card__title — product title
    • span.currency-symbol + span.currency-value — price tokens (sale price is first pair, original price is second pair when discounted)
    • span.wt-screen-reader-only contains full-text Sale Price $7.95 / Original Price $15.90 — more reliable than glueing tokens
    • span.wt-text-title-small — numeric star rating (e.g. 4.8)
    • p.wt-text-body-smaller — review count in parentheses (e.g. (139.7k))
    • span.clickable-shop-name — shop name
    • span.wt-text-grey containing % off — discount label
    • img — thumbnail (300×300 il_300x300.*.jpg on etsystatic.com)
    • clg-signal — badge text: Popular now, Bestseller, etc.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
