/product-enrich — Product Enrichment

Takes a product list with basic info (name + brand) and fills in missing metadata — category, subcategory, primary color, material, and style tags — using AI. Works on CSV files, Google Sheets, or pasted data.

When to Use

  • After a bulk import where products are missing categories or tags
  • When a designer clips products quickly without filling in details
  • To standardize metadata across products from different sources
  • Before generating an FF&E schedule (enriched data makes better schedules)

Step 1: Accept Input

Accept product data in any format:

Google Sheet ID:

/product-enrich 1FMScYW9guezOWc_m4ClTQxxFIpS6TNRr373R-MJGzgE

CSV file:

/product-enrich ~/Documents/project/products.csv

Pasted data:

/product-enrich
Eames Lounge Chair, Herman Miller
Saarinen Tulip Table, Knoll
PH 5 Pendant, Louis Poulsen
Togo Sofa, Ligne Roset

Step 2: Analyze Each Product

For each product, infer the following fields:

Category

Map to the canonical vocabulary (22 terms) defined in

../../schema/product-schema.md
.

Subcategory

More specific classification within the category:

  • Chair → Task Chair, Lounge Chair, Dining Chair, Side Chair, Stool, Bench
  • Table → Dining Table, Coffee Table, Side Table, Console Table, Conference Table
  • Light → Pendant, Floor Lamp, Table Lamp, Wall Sconce, Ceiling, Task Light, Chandelier
  • Sofa → Sofa, Sectional, Loveseat, Daybed, Settee
  • Storage → Credenza, Bookcase, Filing Cabinet, Wardrobe, Sideboard, Dresser

The dominant color of the product as typically sold:

  • Use standard color names: Black, White, Gray, Brown, Beige, Navy, Blue, Green, Red, Orange, Yellow, Pink, Purple, Natural, Walnut, Oak, Teak, Chrome, Brass, Copper, Multi

Material

Primary materials, comma-separated:

  • Wood (specify type if known: Walnut, Oak, Maple, Teak, Birch, Ash, Beech)

  • Character: Organic, Geometric, Sculptural, Modular, Stackable, Compact, Statement, Classic, Iconic
  • Context: Residential, Contract, Hospitality, Healthcare, Education, Outdoor

Image Analysis

If the product data includes an image URL (column AC in the master schema), use Claude vision to verify and refine the enrichment. The image may reveal:

  • Actual color (not just what the name suggests)
  • Material details not in the product name
  • Style characteristics

Step 3: Present Preview

Show a preview of the enrichment before applying:
