How it Works

When your agent detects that a task matches the skill’s triggers (scraping, Google/Amazon/Walmart/eBay searches, Redfin queries, crawling, etc.), it loads the skill’s guidance into the system prompt. The skill contains:

• A list of all available ScraperAPI tools and their parameters.

• A decision tree for selecting the right tool.

• Best practices for cost, pagination, localization and result formatting.

• Guidance on handling large outputs efficiently.

Prompt Example

Real-time News & Market Data

- "I need latest Google news for the current price of Gold."

Response

Claude now factors in the SKILL.md file when making a decision. Instead of manually parsing the HTML or relying on raw search results, it sends a request to ScraperAPI's Google News Structured Data endpoint. That endpoint is specifically designed to return clean, structured JSON data for Google News results

ScraperAPI handles:

• Bypassing the Bot protection mechanisms.

• Fetching the Google News results.

• Structuring the response into machine-readable data.
