Introduction

When building agents, you often encounter a class of problems: “How much is durian today?” or “What is the current market situation for cherries?” Models lack real-time data, so they either refuse to answer or provide outdated prices based on training memory. To solve this, you need to connect the agent to a data source capable of retrieving daily quotations. Fruit Pi is a DSH skill designed for this: it automatically collects the daily wholesale prices of popular fruits and converts them uniformly to RMB/kg. Once installed, the agent can directly answer fruit price questions. Below, we introduce its features, installation, and usage.

What is it

Fruit Pi is a global fruit price collection and query tool. It automatically collects daily wholesale prices of popular fruits such as durian, lychee, cherry, mangosteen, etc., supporting both domestic and international quotations and automatic conversion (RMB/kg). The repository is kobenfang/FruitPi, the maintainer is kobenfang, and the license is MIT.

The name is written in several ways, referring to the same project: the README title is “Fruit Pi”, the repository is “kobenfang/FruitPi”, and the npm package name is “@kobenfang/dsh-fruitpi” (version 1.0.0). The package.json description states it is a DeepSeek Harness (dsh) Agent Skill and points to “./cordis.patch.yml” via the “dsh.bundle.patch” field.

Core Features

Fruit Price Pool

Dynamically maintains price data for popular fruits. Daily wholesale market quotations are automatically collected, covering both domestic and imported fruits. The price pool is not one-time static data but is updated daily.

Dual-source Quotations (Domestic & International)

  • Domestic: Wholesale market data, with examples in the README including major distribution centers like Beijing Xinfadi.
  • International: Export prices from major overseas producing regions.

Both sources are automatically converted to a unified RMB/kg for easy comparison.

In addition to current prices, you can view historical price trends for individual fruits, year-over-year (YoY) and month-over-month (MoM) price changes, and seasonal price fluctuation analysis.

Covered Varieties

Popular varieties including durian, lychee, cherry, mangosteen, blueberry, mango, dragon fruit, grape, strawberry, cherries, etc.

Installation

The installation method provided in the README is the ClawHub skill installation command:

clawhub install fruit-pi

There are no commands like dsh plugin add appearing in the documentation; do not concatenate the repository name yourself.

Usage: Trigger via Direct Conversation

No additional commands are required after installation; simply ask directly in the conversation. The README provides four examples:

Fruit prices         → View current fruit price pool
Price of durian     → Query specific fruit price
Lychee market trend  → View variety market trend
Today's fruit prices → Daily fruit price brief

Technical Composition

It consists of three parts:

  1. A Python script responsible for data collection and price conversion;
  2. Domestic and international wholesale market data sources;
  3. An automatic currency conversion engine to convert international quotations to RMB/kg.

Applicability and Notes

Suitable for use as a data source for DSH agents that need to answer market-related questions, such as generating a daily fruit price brief or directly answering market trends for specific varieties in a conversation.

Two notes:

  1. Data comes from wholesale markets, so the prices obtained are wholesale prices, not retail prices;
  2. The plugin runs with the permissions of the current dsh process. It is recommended to check the source code and license (MIT) before installing to ensure there are no issues.

Conclusion

Fruit Pi solves a very specific problem: it enables agents to answer fruit price questions with daily data to rely on, rather than guessing based on the model. If you are building agents that require market data, you can check out this project.
