Find and compare current FF&E candidates from a design brief, with sourced purchasing facts and optional CSV-library save. Use to research or source products; not to match from an image or pair coordinating items.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# /as:product-research — Product Research

Before acting, read the [host contract](../../docs/host-harness-contract.md) and this component's [declaration](host-contract.json) (`skill:product-research`). Load only its referenced mode profiles from the [shared catalog](../../corpus/host-contracts.json). Compose modes required by the actual task; declarations are requirements, not proof of access or permission.

Library changes are owned by [/as:product-library](../product-library/SKILL.md). Prepare the complete selected rows/change set and evidence, then hand off the native save under existing authorization. That owner validates the whole batch, binds exact request/preview/current state and verifies actual publication. This skill does not independently mutate `product-library.csv`.

<!-- architecture-studio:harness-compatibility -->
> Host adapter: read [delivery-specific guidance](../../docs/host-adapters.md) for invocation, questions, target access and optional delegation.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add alpacalabsllc/skills-for-architects/product-research@sha256:b7494894cfeb07b1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.ae5849f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
