What is smolagents?
Hugging Face's lightweight framework for building AI agents. Minimal, code-first approach to agent development.
Searching Shopify with smolagents
This integration lets your smolagents agent search Shopify in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with store URLs, product page URLs, page titles, SERP snippets (price and stock text when Google shows it) -- ready for reasoning and decision-making.
Setup
Bash
pip install smolagents requestsCode Example
Here is a complete smolagents agent that searches Shopify using Scavio:
Python
from smolagents import tool, CodeAgent, HfApiModel
import json
import os
import requests
# Scavio has no Shopify endpoint. This finds storefront pages through Google; prices and variants come from the pages you then fetch yourself.
@tool
def scavio_search(query: str) -> str:
"""Query Shopify through the Scavio API (POST /api/v2/google).
Args:
query: What to look for.
"""
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v2/google",
headers={
"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["SCAVIO_API_KEY"],
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
json={"query": query},
timeout=60,
)
response.raise_for_status()
return json.dumps(response.json())
agent = CodeAgent(tools=[scavio_search], model=HfApiModel())
result = agent.run("site:myshopify.com leather wallet")
print(result)Full Working Example
A production-ready example with error handling:

)
response.raise_for_status()
return json.dumps(response.json())
agent = CodeAgent(tools=[scavio_search], model=HfApiModel())
result = agent.run("site:myshopify.com leather wallet")
print(result)Pricing
