}pick_costumeRanks Halloween costume ideas from a fixed catalog of 169 against the supplied audience, interests, vibe, effort level, and owned materials, and returns the top 3 matches. Each pick includes a why-line explaining the match, a thumbnail image, a link to its full build page, and the estimated time and effort. Owned items boost ranking: ideas whose materials are covered by the supplied owned items rank higher. Interest is the strongest ranking signal: ideas matching the stated interest outrank others.

pick_costume
Ranks Halloween costume ideas from a fixed catalog of 169 against the supplied audience, interests, vibe, effort level, and owned materials, and returns the top 3 matches. Each pick includes a why-line explaining the match, a thumbnail image, a link to its full build page, and the estimated time and effort. Owned items boost ranking: ideas whose materials are covered by the supplied owned items rank higher. Interest is the strongest ranking signal: ideas matching the stated interest outrank others.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| vibe | string | Vibe: 'funny', 'scary' (or 'spooky'), 'cute' (or 'sweet'), 'chill' (or 'low-key'). |
| effort | string | Effort: 'easy'/'last-minute'/'couch-level', 'crafty'/'medium', or 'all-out'/'ambitious'. |
| who_for* | string | Who the costume is for: e.g. 'toddler', '3-year-old', 'kid', 'adult', 'couple', 'family', 'group of 5'. |
| interest | string | Optional but powerful: what the wearer is into, e.g. 'dinosaurs', 'animals', 'princesses', 'superheroes', 'video games', 'tv characters', 'food', 'sports'. This is the strongest ranking signal: ideas matching the interest win. |
| group_size | number | Optional: how many people need costumes (for family/group picks). |
| owned_items | array | Optional: things the user already owns, e.g. ['bedsheet'], ['cardboard', 'tape']. Ideas buildable from owned items rank higher. |

}search_by_owningRanks the fixed costume catalog by how many of each idea's materials are covered by the supplied household items, so ideas needing the least extra shopping rank highest. Each result includes what the idea still needs, with each still-needed item tagged buy, own, either, or make. Common household basics are assumed present in every home; the exact assumed list is returned with each call. An optional audience narrows results to who the costume is for.
