| name | amazon-analysis |
| description | Amazon-domain general analysis and multi-endpoint research engine. Handles broad or composite Amazon research requests that span multiple data dimensions or have no single specialized angle. Use when: - user asks for multi-endpoint Amazon research, composite reports, or
general Amazon market/product analysis
- user asks "what kind of Amazon analysis can I run" or wants an overview
of available Amazon insights
- user wants broad Amazon data exploration with no single specific
deliverable in mind
Uses {skill_base_dir}/scripts/zoodata.py. Requires ZOODATA_API_KEY.

ZooData — Amazon Seller Data Analysis
AI-powered Amazon product research. Respond in user's language.
Files
| File | Purpose |
|---|
{skill_base_dir}/scripts/zoodata.py | Execute for all API calls (run --help for params) |
{skill_base_dir}/references/reference.md | Load when you need exact field names or filter details |
Credential
Required: ZOODATA_API_KEY. Get free key at zoodata.ai/api-keys. Stored in {skill_base_dir}/config.json in skill root.
Input
User provides: keyword, category, ASIN, or brand — depending on intent. Use intent routing below.
API Pitfalls (CRITICAL)
- Category first: keyword search is broad → MUST lock
categoryPath via categories endpoint before other calls
- Brand + category: Brand queries MUST include
--category to avoid cross-category contamination
- Use API fields directly: revenue=
sampleAvgMonthlyRevenue (NEVER calculate price×sales), sales=monthlySalesFloor (lower bound), opportunity=sampleOpportunityIndex
- reviews/analysis: needs 50+ reviews per ASIN; try category mode first (single call returns all dimensions), ASIN mode only if category call fails. Filter by
labelType client-side from the consumerInsights array. Fallback chain when sample is insufficient:
- Lightweight:
realtime/product ratingBreakdown — only star distribution, no themes
- Full 11-dim insights — bypass
/reviews/analysis entirely:
a. zoodata.py reviews-raw --asin X → fetch up to 100 raw reviews (10 credits, ~60s)
b. For each review: render Map prompt via zoodata.py review-tag-prompt --review '<json>'
and have your own LLM produce JSON tags (sentiment + 11 dimensions)
c. Collect candidate phrases per dimension; for each dimension render
Reduce prompt via zoodata.py review-reduce-prompt --label-type X --candidates '[...]'
and have your LLM produce semantic clusters
d. zoodata.py review-aggregate --reviews R --tagged T --clusters C
→ consumerInsights output compatible with /reviews/analysis
- Aggregation without categoryPath: produces severely distorted data
- Check the
data shape before indexing: many search/list endpoints return .data as an array, so use .data[0] for the first record in those cases; some commands return non-array payloads inside data
- labelType: NOT an API request parameter — it is a field in the response
consumerInsights array, used for client-side filtering
- history empty: try oldest-listed ASINs first, up to 3 rounds of different ASINs before giving up
- Sales null fallback: Monthly sales ≈ 300,000 / BSR^0.65
On Missing Key
When ZOODATA_API_KEY is not set (verify via python {skill_base_dir}/scripts/zoodata.py check — exits 2 if no key in env or ~/.zoodata/config.json): follow the "On Missing Key" protocol in zoodata/SKILL.md — STOP before any call, link the user to https://zoodata.ai/en/api-keys, and DO NOT produce a "partial analysis from public knowledge" / "for reference only" fallback as a substitute.
On 401 Invalid Key
When zoodata.py returns code 401: follow the "On 401 Invalid Key" protocol in zoodata/SKILL.md — STOP further calls, tell the user the key was rejected and direct them to api-keys, do not fabricate missing data.
On 402 Credit Exhausted
When zoodata.py returns code 402: follow the "On 402 Credit Exhausted" protocol in zoodata/SKILL.md — STOP further calls, report partial findings already gathered, do not fabricate missing data.
14 Product Selection Modes
| Mode | One-line Description |
|---|
hot-products | High sales + strong growth momentum |
rising-stars | Low base + rapid growth trajectory |
underserved | Monthly sales≥300, rating≤3.7 — improvable products |
high-demand-low-barrier | Monthly sales≥300, reviews≤50 — easy entry |
beginner | $15-60, FBA, monthly sales≥300 — new seller friendly |
fast-movers | Monthly sales≥300, growth≥10% — quick turnover |
emerging | Monthly sales≤600, growth≥10%, ≤6 months old |
single-variant | Growth≥20%, 1 variant, ≤6 months — small & rising |
long-tail | BSR 10K-50K, ≤$30, exclusive sellers — niche |
new-release | Monthly sales≤500, New Release tag |

Composite Commands
report --keyword X → categories + market + products(top50) + realtime(top1)opportunity --keyword X [--mode Y] → categories + market + products(filtered) + realtime(top3)
Analysis Framework
Every analysis should address these dimensions where data is available:
Market Health Assessment
| Indicator | Good | Caution | Warning |
|---|
| Monthly demand (sampleAvgMonthlySales) | >1,500 units 📊 | 500-1,500 📊 | <500 📊 |
| Brand concentration (CR10) | <40% 📊 | 40-60% 📊 | >60% 📊 |
| New entrant rate (sampleNewSkuRate) | >15% 📊 | 5-15% 📊 | <5% 📊 |
| Avg review count (sampleAvgRatingCount) | <500 📊 | 500-5,000 📊 | >5,000 📊 |
| FBA rate (sampleFbaRate) | >60% 📊 | 40-60% 📊 | <40% 📊 |
Competitive Position Assessment
- Price vs category avg: >20% above = premium positioning, >20% below = value play 🔍
- Rating vs category avg: ≥0.3 above = quality advantage, ≥0.3 below = quality risk 🔍
- Review count vs Top 10 avg: <10% of leaders = high barrier, >50% = competitive 🔍
- BSR trend (30d): Improving = momentum, stable = holding, declining = losing share 🔍
Opportunity Viability
When user asks "should I sell X" or "is this a good niche":
- ALL of: demand >500, CR10 <60%, avgReviewCount <5,000 → Likely viable 🔍
- ANY of: demand <200, CR10 >80%, avgReviewCount >10,000 → Likely not viable 🔍
- Mixed signals → Present data, let user decide with their domain knowledge 💡
Sales Estimation Notes
monthlySalesFloor is a lower-bound estimate 📊- Null sales fallback: Monthly sales ≈ 300,000 / BSR^0.65 🔍
- Revenue =
sampleAvgMonthlyRevenue directly — NEVER calculate price × sales 📊
Output Spec
Sections: Analysis findings → Data Source & Conditions table (interfaces, category, dateRange, sampleType, topN, filters) → Data Notes (estimated values, T+1 delay, sampling basis).
Language (required)
Output language MUST match the user's input language. If the user asks in Chinese, the entire report is in Chinese. If in English, output in English. Exception: API field names (e.g. monthlySalesFloor, categoryPath), endpoint names, technical terms (e.g. ASIN, BSR, CR10, FBA, credits) remain in English.
Disclaimer (required, at the top of every report)
Data is based on ZooData API sampling as of [date]. Monthly sales (monthlySalesFloor) are lower-bound estimates. This analysis is for reference only and should not be the sole basis for business decisions. Validate with additional sources before acting.
Confidence Labels (required, tag EVERY conclusion)
- 📊 Data-backed — direct API data (e.g. "CR10 = 54.8% 📊")
- 🔍 Inferred — logical reasoning from data (e.g. "brand concentration is moderate 🔍")
- 💡 Directional — suggestions, predictions, strategy (e.g. "consider entering $10-15 band 💡")
Rules: Strategy recommendations are NEVER 📊. Anomalies (>200% growth) are always 💡. User criteria override AI judgment.
Aggregate-label rule (applies to ALL report output, not just fallback): NEVER attach 📊 to ANY element that aggregates or groups underlying content when ANY piece of that content is 🔍 or 💡. "Aggregate/grouping elements" include:
- Section headers at EVERY level (
#, ##, ###, ####) — including top-level summary sections like "Overall Score", "Verdict", "Executive Summary"
- Summary/score lines anywhere in the report (e.g.
## Overall Score — 27/100 · Grade F 📊 is WRONG if any Basis row inside is 🔍)
- Table column headers in comparison tables (e.g.
**Target ASIN** 📊 as a column label is WRONG if any cell in that column contains 🔍)
- Table row headers or row-aggregation labels (when the row aggregates multiple cells of mixed confidence)
- Any other visual grouping label — bullet-list group titles, callout box titles, etc.
A group-level 📊 implies the whole block/column/row is data-backed, which smuggles inferred/directional content into the 📊 tier via visual grouping. Either (a) omit the group-level label entirely (preferred when content mixes tiers), or (b) use the LOWEST confidence present inside (🔍 if any underlying content is 🔍; 💡 if any is 💡). This is a universal output-quality rule — it applies regardless of which fallback path (if any) was triggered.
Emoji reservation rule (closely related): The three confidence symbols 📊 🔍 💡 are RESERVED for confidence labeling. NEVER use them as decorative prefixes on section headers, table headers, or any aggregate element — even when you also include a correct confidence suffix on the same line. Example:
- ❌ WRONG:
## 📊 Overall Score — 27/100 · Grade F 🔍 (the leading 📊 reads as a data-backed claim even though the trailing 🔍 is correct)
- ✅ RIGHT:
## Overall Score — 27/100 · Grade F 🔍 (no decorative emoji, just the proper confidence suffix)
- ✅ RIGHT:
## 🎯 Overall Score — 27/100 · Grade F 🔍 (use non-reserved decorative icons like 🎯 🧭 📋 📝 📂 🏁 🚨 🏆 🔔 when a visual prefix is desired)
Decorative emoji ≠ confidence label — but from a reader's perspective, a leading 📊/🔍/💡 is indistinguishable from a confidence claim. Reserve these three symbols EXCLUSIVELY for confidence annotation to avoid ambiguity.
Data Provenance (required)
Include a table at the end of every report:
| Data | Endpoint | Key Params | Notes |
|---|
| (e.g. Market Overview) | markets/search | categoryPath, topN=10 | 📊 Top N sampling, sales are lower-bound |
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
Extract endpoint and params from _query in JSON output. Add notes: sampling method, T+1 delay, realtime vs DB, minimum review threshold, etc.
API Usage (required)
| Endpoint | Calls | Credits |
|---|
| (each endpoint used) | N | N |
| Total | N | N |
Extract from meta.creditsConsumed per response. End with Credits remaining: N.
Limitations
Cannot do: keyword research, reverse ASIN, ABA data, traffic source analysis, historical price/BSR charts. Niche keywords may return empty — use category path instead.
