What Goofish Item Detail does

The Goofish Item Detail skill is designed to extract comprehensive information from a single item page on Goofish (闲鱼), a popular second-hand marketplace. When provided with an item URL or ID, this skill retrieves essential details such as the item title, price, seller information, full description, image gallery, item tags, and the count of users interested in the item. This functionality is particularly useful for users looking to verify listings before making purchases or for those who need to gather detailed information about multiple items for analysis or comparison.

To utilize the skill, users must ensure they are logged into their Goofish account, as the item detail pages require authenticated access. The skill operates by navigating to the specified item page and extracting data directly from the DOM. It handles various scenarios, including CAPTCHA challenges and potential errors related to network issues, ensuring a robust user experience. The output is structured in JSON format, making it easy to integrate with other tools or processes.

This skill is ideal for developers and data analysts who need to automate the extraction of item details from Goofish, enabling them to enrich their datasets or streamline their purchasing decisions. It can also be beneficial for anyone involved in reselling or market analysis of second-hand goods, providing a quick way to gather necessary information without manual browsing.

While the skill is powerful, it does have limitations. Rapid navigation between item pages may trigger CAPTCHA, and some items may not be accessible without login. Users should also be aware that certain fields may be null depending on the completeness of the listing. Thus, while the skill is effective for detailed extraction, it requires careful handling of requests to avoid rate limiting.

When to use it

Use this skill when you need to gather detailed information from specific Goofish item listings, especially for verification or analysis.

When not to use it

Avoid using this skill for bulk data extraction without considering rate limits, as rapid requests may lead to CAPTCHA challenges.

What you can build with it

Verifying Item Listings

Use this skill to extract detailed information from Goofish item pages to confirm the accuracy of listings before making a purchase.

Bulk Data Collection

Gather details from multiple Goofish items by feeding a list of item IDs into the skill, ensuring you respect rate limits.

Market Analysis

Extract and analyze item details for market research or reselling strategies, helping to make informed decisions.

Goofish (闲鱼) — Item Detail

item URL (or item_id + category_id) → full listing data: title, price, seller info, description, images, tags, want-count

Language

All process output to user (progress updates, process notifications) follows the user's language.

Objective

Load a single Goofish item detail page and extract its complete listing data including seller information, item description, image gallery, and attribute tags.

Prerequisites

  • Browser with an active Goofish session (login required — item detail pages require authenticated access)
  • Target item URL format: https://www.goofish.com/item?id={item_id}&categoryId={category_id}

Pre-execution Checks

1. Tool Readiness

If browser-act has been confirmed available in the current session → skip this step.

Invoke browser-act via Skill tool to load usage. If installation or configuration issues arise, follow its guidance to resolve then retry.

2. Login Verification

If login status for Goofish has been confirmed in the current session → skip this step.

Otherwise: open https://www.goofish.com/ and observe the page:

  • User avatar or account entry exists → logged in, continue
  • Login/register prompt → not logged in; inform user that login is required; assist login flow

User refuses or cannot log in → terminate execution.

Capability Components

This Skill's operational boundary = what the user can manually do in their browser. It only reads data already displayed on the page. JS code is encapsulated in Python files under the scripts/ directory, invoked via eval "$(python scripts/xxx.py {params})". $(...) is bash syntax; use the bash tool for execution.

Network Capture: load item detail page

The item detail API (mtop.taobao.idle.pc.detail/1.0/) auto-fires when navigating to the item URL. Provide parameters via URL:

  1. navigate https://www.goofish.com/item?id={item_id}&categoryId={category_id}
  2. wait stable
  3. Proceed to DOM extraction below

Error handling:

  • If a CAPTCHA slider appears ("Please slide to verify"): the session is rate-limited. Wait 5–10 minutes, or use remote-assist to complete the slider manually, then re-navigate.
  • If "网络不见了" error page appears: the item page API call failed. Retry once after 30 seconds; if it persists, the session may be temporarily blocked.
  • If item shows "该宝贝已下架" or similar: item has been removed/sold — skip and move to next item.

Note: Navigating to item detail pages in rapid succession (e.g., less than 2 seconds apart) increases the probability of CAPTCHA. Add 2–5 second delays between items in batch mode.

DOM: extract item detail data

After navigating and waiting stable, extract all available fields:

eval "$(python scripts/extract-item-detail.py)"

Output example:

{
  "item_id": "1054899470781",
  "item_url": "https://www.goofish.com/item?id=1054899470781&categoryId=126862528",
  "title": "出一台iPhone 15 128G,电池健康度高,成色九新以上...",
  "price": "898.00",
  "original_price": "899.00",
  "seller_name": "小王数码严选",
  "seller_avatar": "https://img.alicdn.com/bao/uploaded/...",
  "seller_labels": ["成都", "刚刚擦亮", "来闲鱼5年", "卖出204件宝贝", "好评率100%"],
  "description": "出一台iPhone 15 128G,电池健康度高,成色九新以上...",
  "images": [
    "https://img.alicdn.com/bao/uploaded/i4/...",
    "https://img.alicdn.com/bao/uploaded/i2/..."
  ],
  "tags": ["品牌:Apple/苹果", "型号:iPhone 15", "存储容量:128GB", "运行内存:6GB", "成色:几乎全新"],
  "want_count": "8人想要"
}

Fields that may be null: original_price, seller_labels, description, tags, want_count (depending on listing completeness). Note: on Goofish detail pages, title and description contain the same text — there is no separate title element.

Pagination

N/A — single item page, no pagination.

Success Criteria

item_id non-null and title non-null and price non-null

Known Limitations

  • Seller user ID (numeric) is not exposed in the DOM — only seller display name is available
  • Item detail pages trigger CAPTCHA if accessed too rapidly; recommended minimum interval: 3 seconds between items
  • Some items may require login even for viewing; the Skill will return an error if the page fails to load
  • Rapid successive navigation may trigger "网络不见了" error — wait 30 seconds before retrying

Execution Efficiency

  • Batch orchestration: Loop through item IDs serially with 3–5 second delays; do not parallelize within one browser. To increase throughput, distribute items across multiple browser sessions
  • Test before batch execution: Test with 2–3 items first to confirm selectors are valid; only then run the full batch
  • Error resumption: Save results item-by-item; on failure (CAPTCHA or error), record the failed item ID and resume after the CAPTCHA clears
  • Get item IDs from search: Use goofish-search-list Skill to collect item IDs, then feed them into this Skill for detail enrichment

Experience Notes

Path: {working-directory}/browser-act-skill-forge-memories/xianyu-scraper-goofish-item-detail.memory.md

Before execution: If the file exists, read it first — it records unexpected situations encountered during past executions (e.g., a strategy has become ineffective); adjust strategy order accordingly.

After execution: If an unexpected situation is encountered (strategy became ineffective, page redesigned, anti-scraping upgraded, better path discovered), append a line: {YYYY-MM-DD}: {what happened} → {conclusion}

Normal execution does not write to the file.
