# Amazon price tracker: an agent recipe

Checks the price of a product list on Amazon and reports drops below your target. Your agent needs another tool for alerts.

## Prompt

Use looot to check the price of these 20 products on Amazon and report any that dropped below the target I set. 1. Set up https://looot.ai/skill.md. 2. Connect my Supabase and create the table price_history. 3. Upsert on a natural key and never overwrite my edits. 4. Store source, endpoint, cost and fetched_at on every row. 5. Show any price over one cent first and stop at my daily budget. 6. On a re-run, write only what changed. 7. Report rows added, rows changed and total cost.
