What is zyte-ecommerce-products-compare-skill?

A tool that collects product details from online shop URLs through the Zyte API and puts them into a common side-by-side comparison table.

Use it to compare products from e-commerce sites and produce a recommendation based on the extracted product data.

It removes the need to copy product information manually from different shops and helps make product choices using comparable fields.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00132	$0.02558
Opus 5.5	$0.00053	$0.01023
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00026	$0.00512
Haiku 4.5	$0.00013	$0.00256

Security

Grade A, and why

zyte-ecommerce-products-compare-skill scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/fetch_products.py, scripts/parse_product.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Zyte E-Commerce Products Compare Skill

Compare products from any e-commerce site by extracting structured data via the Zyte API, building a normalized comparison table, and recommending the best option.

Skill structure

zyte-ecommerce-products-compare-skill/
├── SKILL.md                         ← Workflow and instructions (you are here)
├── scripts/
│   ├── fetch_products.py            ← Parallel fetcher (2–20+ URLs, rate-limit aware)
│   └── parse_product.py             ← Response parser (handles edge cases in Zyte output)
└── references/
    └── zyte-api-notes.md            ← API reference notes and known gotchas

When to read what:

scripts/fetch_products.py — always. This is the primary data fetching tool.
scripts/parse_product.py — always. Run it on each fetched response file.
references/zyte-api-notes.md — when you hit unexpected errors or need to understand a parsing edge case.

Prerequisites

python3 (3.8+, stdlib only — no pip installs required)
ZYTE_API_KEY set in the environment

Input

Gather from the user:

Field	Required	Description
`urls`	Yes	List of product page URLs (at least 1, ideally 2+)
`intent`	No	What the user cares about (e.g. "best value", "most durable")
`api_key`	Yes	Zyte API key (prefer `$ZYTE_API_KEY` from env)

Workflow

Step 1 — Validate inputs

Confirm at least one URL is provided. If only one URL is given, extract and present its data but note that comparison requires 2+.
Each URL must start with http:// or https://.
Verify ZYTE_API_KEY is set:
```
echo "$ZYTE_API_KEY" | head -c 4; echo "..."
```
If empty, ask the user to export it.
If URLs span very different product categories (e.g. footwear and electronics), warn the user and ask for confirmation before proceeding.

What ships with it

6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
