find_products

ai.airshelf/catalog · Verify this server

Discover candidate products for a buyer need. Takes a need in natural language (e.g. "best value home espresso machine", market "TH"), checks the verified catalog first, then uses live web discovery only when the catalog has no candidates. Returns up to 3 candidates with explicit fit accounting. find_products is the quick candidate-list tool; research_shopping is the full verified-research job. For a specific brand+model, search_catalog is cheaper and returns the same live-lookup block on a miss. Response fields: • candidates[].verification — "catalog-candidate" for a catalog starting point whose fit still needs checking, or "live-unverified" for a live page read during this run. • candidates[].status — "resolved" means both identity and the parsed buyer constraints were supported by the cited page; "abstain" means identity or need fit could not be established. Inspect constraint_check for matched, conflicting, and unverified requirements. • candidates[].constraint_check.receipts maps each receipt-backed matched requirement to its supporting source URL and trust label. • Candidates come from current web-search results, so they are a sample of what the market offers rather than a ranking. • status at the top level — "no_match" means discovery ran but no candidate was confirmed as satisfying the need; "disabled", "rate_limited", or "unavailable" means no discovery ran. • live_discovery.status="unavailable" means receipted catalog candidates were returned while live discovery was unavailable. Optional `market` (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2) biases discovery and marketplace checks toward seller pages serving that country and scopes the lookup cache. "Available in <market>" means the seller page serves that market, not that stock is guaranteed.
