## What it does

The skill covers 12 Amazon marketplaces: US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, JP, CA, AU, IN, MX, BR. No API key, so it runs right after install.

A bundled script, `research.sh`, queries Amazon autocomplete with your seed word, adds prefixes like "best" and "cheap", walks the a–z suffixes and returns 100–200 deduplicated search phrases. From there the skill gathers competitor data with `web_search`, pulls Google Trends with `web_fetch`, and writes a report: price range, average rating, top brands, seasonal peaks, plus an opportunity score with the reasoning spelled out.

One catch: without web access the competitor and seasonality steps do nothing, and you are left with the keyword list alone. If Google Trends throws a 429, the skill falls back to searching for seasonal data. Comparing two keywords means running the whole cycle once per keyword.

Retrieve autocomplete suggestions (long-tail keywords), analyze competitor landscape, and assess market opportunity for any keyword on 12 Amazon marketplaces (US/UK/DE/FR/IT/ES/JP/CA/AU/IN/MX/BR). No API key required. Make sure to use this skill whenever the user mentions Amazon product research, finding products to sell on Amazon, Amazon keyword ideas, niche analysis, competition analysis for Amazon, market opportunity on Amazon, comparing Amazon keywords, evaluating whether a product is worth selling, Amazon autocomplete data, seasonal demand for Amazon products, or anything related to researching what to sell on Amazon — even if they don't explicitly say 'keyword research'. Also trigger when the user asks vague questions like 'is this a good product to sell?', 'what's the competition like for X on Amazon?', 'should I sell X or Y?', or 'what are people searching for on Amazon?'."
