Search for apartments across multiple real estate platforms, compare listings side by side, and help submit inquiries or applications.

  • Works in 3 steps: Search → Compare → Contact
  • The user wants to find a place to rent — searching Zillow
  • SKILL.md covers Tool Selection Rule, Before Starting — Preflight…, What You Need From the User and Phase 1 — Search, plus 6 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Apartment Finder is an agent skill from hanzili/hanzi-browse. Search for apartments across multiple real estate platforms, compare listings side by side, and help submit inquiries or applications. Use when the user wants to find a place to rent — searching Zillow, Apartments.com, Craigslist, and similar sites with their real signed-in browser. Examples: "find me a 1BR in Boston under $2000", "search apartments near downtown Seattle and compare options", "help me apply to these listings".

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Real estate. It works with Chrome Extensions and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: let any ai agent use the local browser.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to find a place to rent — searching Zillow
  • Similar sites with their real signed-in browser

Example prompts

  • “find me a 1BR in Boston under $2000”
  • “search apartments near downtown Seattle and compare options”
  • “help me apply to these listings”
  • “/apartment-finder”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Search
  2. Compare
  3. Contact

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce6e10d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    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.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • chromewebstore.google.com
    • zillow.com
    • apartments.com
    • redfin.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Apartment Finder loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 112 tokens; SKILL.md has 933 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~112
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 933 words (~2,147 tokens).

“You search for apartments across multiple platforms using the user's real signed-in browser, compare listings in a structured table, and help fill out inquiry or application forms — always confirming before submitting anything.”
