Canopy Skills
Canopy Skills are reusable, prompt-driven modules that give AI agents structured capabilities for working with the Canopy API. Install a skill once and any compatible AI agent can use it to query Amazon product data including pricing, reviews, search results, and sales estimates.
Installation
Install the amazon-data skill using npx:
npx skills add https://github.com/canopy-api/skills --skill amazon-data
This fetches the skill definition from the Canopy Skills repository and registers it with your agent environment.
Getting Started
- Create an account at canopyapi.co
- Retrieve your API key from the dashboard
- Run the install command above
Once installed, the skill gives your agent the context it needs to query the Canopy API — covering product lookups, search, pricing, reviews, and more — using either the REST API or GraphQL API.
What Skills Provide
Skills are structured capability modules rather than raw API wrappers. They include the prompts, instructions, and schema context an AI agent needs to:
- Search for Amazon products by keyword or category
- Look up product details, pricing, and availability by ASIN
- Fetch customer reviews and ratings
- Retrieve sales and demand estimates
This means you describe what you want in natural language and the agent handles the API calls — no manual query construction required.
Tip: If you want direct tool-level access for AI assistants like Claude Desktop, see the Canopy API MCP server instead.
