vrboSearch VRBO (Vrbo / Expedia Group) vacation rentals including entire homes, condos, and cabins via Patchright browser automation.
Vrbo is an agent skill from borski/travel-hacking-toolkit. Search VRBO (Vrbo / Expedia Group) vacation rentals including entire homes, condos, and cabins via Patchright browser automation. VRBO sits behind Akamai Bot Manager so plain HTTP and standard Playwright get a 429 bot wall. Use for whole-home or group stays, multi-bedroom rentals, and Airbnb-vs-VRBO comparisons. Trigger phrases include search VRBO, Vrbo rentals, vacation rental, cabin rental, whole house, condo for the group.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/entrypoint.sh`, `scripts/search_vrbo.py` and `tests/test_search_vrbo.py`).
It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Browser automation and Browser testing. It works with Playwright and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: AI-powered travel hacking and search with cash, points, miles, and award flights. Drop-in skills and MCP servers for Claude, Codex, and OpenCode. The licence is MIT.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit db82131. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python and Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3dockerpipFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
vrbo.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Vrbo loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 109 tokens; SKILL.md has 657 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

This skill also uses 4 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.Search VRBO vacation rentals via Patchright and return whole-home / condo / cabin listings with pricing and booking links. VRBO is the natural complement to the Airbnb MCP for group and family stays — many mountain-town and resort property managers cross-list on both, but VRBO carries professionally-managed condos and cabins that don't always appear on Airbnb.
Requires Patchright (undetected Playwright fork). VRBO sits behind Akamai
Bot Manager — plain HTTP, standard Playwright, @playwright/mcp, and
agent-browser all get a 429 Too Many Requests ("Provisioned request rate has
been exceeded") bot wall. Patchright passes Akamai's sensor and earns the
_abck cookie. This is the same wall — and the same fix — as the chase-travel /
amex-travel / southwest skills.
Must run headed (headless=False). Akamai flags headless browsers. On macOS
a Chrome window briefly appears. For background / unattended runs, use Docker
(Xvfb provides the virtual display).
No login required. VRBO search results are public — unlike chase-travel / amex-travel, there are no credentials. The persistent profile only caches the Akamai cookie so repeat searches re-challenge less.
pip install patchright && patchright install chromiumOr use Docker (no local install, headed via Xvfb):

}extractor tells you which layer produced the data. __PLUS_REDUX_STORE__ is
richest (bedrooms, coords, review counts); dom:lodging-card is reliable but
thinner (the common case — names, prices, URLs); dom:anchors is a last-ditch
id+url scrape — if you see that, the page shape changed and selectors need a
refresh (file a P2 task).
Prices: the SERP price string is parsed into pricePerNight and
priceTotal. Verified against live data: VRBO's SERP total includes taxes &
fees (priceIncludesTaxes: true) — priceTotal is the all-in for the whole
stay, pricePerNight is the lead nightly rate. This satisfies the
hotel-comparison standard's all-in requirement directly; still open the listing
URL to confirm before booking, since a damage deposit or optional add-ons may
not be in the SERP figure.
The pure logic (search-URL building, Akamai block/challenge detection, SERP
price parsing, skeleton filtering, listing enrichment) is covered by stdlib
unittest tests — no browser, network, or Patchright needed (the patchright
import is lazy):
python3 -m unittest discover -s skills/vrbo/tests -v # or: python3 -m pytest skills/vrbo/tests17 tests, no third-party deps. The browser-driven path (Akamai bypass, DOM
extraction) can't be unit-tested without a live residential connection — verify
it manually with a real search (see Usage above). The repo smoke test
(scripts/smoke-test.sh) separately validates this skill's frontmatter and
structure.

Run `npx skills add borski/travel-hacking-toolkit --skill vrbo -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/travel-hacking-toolkit/skills/vrbo in borski/travel-hacking-toolkit) into .claude/skills/vrbo in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add borski/travel-hacking-toolkit --skill vrbo -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/travel-hacking-toolkit/skills/vrbo in borski/travel-hacking-toolkit) into .agents/skills/vrbo in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add borski/travel-hacking-toolkit --skill vrbo -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/vrbo, .gemini/skills/vrbo, .github/skills/vrbo and .opencode/skills/vrbo in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Vrbo needs Python and a shell for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python3, docker and pip). Our summary lists: Python 3; A Bash shell; Docker.
SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: vrbo.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Vrbo is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.7k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Vrbo: Browser Use (QwenLM/qwen-code-examples, 143 stars), Browser Use (aiskillstore/marketplace, 430 stars), Cdp Connect (adobe/skills, 196 stars) and Lightpanda (lightpanda-io/agent-skill, 101 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
