Briscoes NZ

Goal

Query live Briscoes NZ product and store data through a small deterministic CLI with human-readable and JSON output, without browser automation or account login.

Use this when

• A user asks for Briscoes NZ product prices or sale/deal products
• A user wants to search Briscoes products by keyword
• A user has a Briscoes SKU and wants product details
• A user wants Briscoes store locations or contact details
• A workflow needs lightweight machine-readable Briscoes public product or store data

Do not use this for

• Non-Briscoes retailers or Briscoes Group brands other than Briscoes NZ
• Authenticated account, rewards, personalised, cart, checkout, order, gift registry, or payment actions
• Redistributing scraped Briscoes product data as a dataset
• Historical pricing or price-change claims unless another dataset provides history

Preferred workflow

1. Run scripts/cli.py with the narrowest subcommand that answers the task
2. Use search for keyword price/product lookup
3. Use specials for sale/deal-flagged products; this is a search-derived view verified against Magento product pricing, not a dedicated Briscoes specials API
4. Use product when an exact SKU is known and full Magento price-range detail matters
5. Use stores --region to narrow store-finder results by city, region, suburb, or name
6. Use --json for agent chaining, comparisons, alerts, or structured reports
7. Mention that prices are live Briscoes online snapshots and the source is unofficial

CLI

Run with:

python3 skills/briscoes-nz/scripts/cli.py <command> [flags]

Commands

• search <query> [--limit N] [--page N] [--json] - product search with current prices
• product <sku> [--json] - fetch exact SKU detail
• stores [--region text] [--json] - list public Briscoes store-finder locations
• specials [query] [--limit N] [--page N] [--json] - sale/deal-flagged products verified to have a sale price below regular price, optionally filtered by query

Examples:

python3 skills/briscoes-nz/scripts/cli.py search towel --limit 10
python3 skills/briscoes-nz/scripts/cli.py search "cast iron" --limit 5 --json
python3 skills/briscoes-nz/scripts/cli.py product 1129433 --json
python3 skills/briscoes-nz/scripts/cli.py stores --region auckland --json
python3 skills/briscoes-nz/scripts/cli.py specials bedding --limit 10 --json

Notes

• No API key secret, username, password, account cookie, or browser automation is required for supported read-only operations
• Briscoes uses an Adobe Commerce/Magento PWA backed by Klevu for product search/listing
• search uses Klevu search data; specials uses Klevu discovery plus Magento price verification; product and stores use Briscoes Magento GraphQL
• Endpoint shapes can change; verify with a small live query before relying on large workflows
• Keep usage narrow and respectful
