Use looot to ask a model the questions I give you about my category and list every brand and URL it mentions. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.
