purchasing

purchasing

Claude Code plugin for running purchasing decisions end-to-end — from intake and spec, through research and comparison, to a recommendation and (optionally) a PDF report. Covers three purchasing surfaces: general consumer/business purchasing, technical rig procurement, and vendor/content recommendations.

Part of the danielrosehill Claude Code marketplace.

What you get

Primitives (always available once the plugin is installed)

General-purchasing commands (/purchasing:*):

• intake — build the per-purchase spec (spec.md)
• research — evaluate candidates against the spec
• compare — side-by-side comparison of 2–4 shortlisted products
• evaluate — quick one-off evaluation of a single product
• recommend — generate the final PDF recommendation report
• recompare — re-run the shortlist against the current spec
• extract — pull product data from screenshots, PDFs, and catalogs
• market-check — local vs international price realism with import costs
• load-preferences / save-preferences — standing preferences to/from Mem0
• apply-profile — bias this purchase toward a named buyer archetype (BIFL, budget, minimalist, etc.)
• update-spec — targeted edit to spec.md

Tech-procurement commands (/purchasing:rig-*):

• rig-setup — initial hardware-planning interview
• rig-profile — document a specific machine's hardware
• rig-analyze — identify bottlenecks and upgrade opportunities
• rig-compare — compare specific components
• rig-recommend — generate upgrade recommendations
• rig-estimate — produce a formal cost estimate document

Vendor-recommendations commands (/purchasing:rec-*):

• rec-onboard — first-run preference capture (format + availability)
• rec-more-like-this — similar-item recommendations from a seed
• rec-log-feedback — record like / dislike on past recommendations and update the profile
• rec-list — surface recommendation history and feedback status
• rec-opml-ingest / rec-reading-list-ingest / rec-watch-history-ingest — bulk-seed preferences from exports

Agents:

• manufacturer-research, price-comparison, product-extraction, review-aggregation, spec-verification — research sub-agents for the general-purchasing flow
• preference-curator, recommender — recommendation-profile and suggestion sub-agents

Provisioning skill

• /purchasing:new-workspace <name> [--variant=general-purchasing|tech-procurement|vendor-recommendations] [--local-only] [--private]

Scaffolds a new workspace from one of three templates, personalises CLAUDE.md from ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, and (by default) creates a public GitHub repo for it.

Pattern

Primitives live in the plugin → globally available from any cwd. Workspace scaffolds are provisioned as data → no .claude/ tree inside provisioned workspaces. Plugin updates never touch your workspace data.

See PLAN.md in Claude-Workspace-Reshaping-190426 for the full pattern spec this plugin follows.

Variants

• general-purchasing (default) — one-purchase-per-repo workflow with spec, buyer profiles, research, and PDF report.
• tech-procurement — hardware rig planning: profile existing machines, analyse bottlenecks, recommend components, produce a formal cost estimate.
• vendor-recommendations — ongoing content/vendor recommendation workspace: learns preferences over time, generates similar-item suggestions, tracks feedback.
