What it does

Us Property Data is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Use when a task needs real U.S. residential property data: valuation, listings, price or tax history, schools, or a zillow.com URL.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k 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. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT-0.

When your agent uses it

  • A task needs real U.S

Example prompts

  • “/us-property-data”

Requirements

  • A credential in ZILLAPI_KEY

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Resolve the property first. An address, a zillow.com URL, or a zpid all resolve to the same record. Prefer zpid when the user already has…
  2. Request only the fields the task needs. The property response is large; selecting fields keeps responses small and makes intent explicit…
  3. Treat every valuation as an estimate with a date attached. Render the value and its as-of date together. A Zestimate presented without its…
  4. Handle absence explicitly. Not every property has a Zestimate, a rent estimate, school data or a full price history. Absent is not zero.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ec02547. 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

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • api.zillapi.com

    Also links to:

    • zillapi.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • ZILLAPI_KEY

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

Context cost

Us Property Data loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 852 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~37
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

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.

U.S. Property Data

Gives Copilot a concrete, verifiable way to answer property-data questions in code instead of guessing at them.

When to Use

Activate this skill when:

  • A task needs a real valuation, rent estimate or comparable for a specific U.S. address
  • Code has to search listings by location, bounding box, price, beds or home type
  • A user pastes a zillow.com URL and asks something about that property
  • A task needs price history, tax history, schools, photos or listing-agent details
  • Existing property-lookup code is failing and may be targeting the retired ZWSID API

Do not use this skill for:

  • Generic REST, HTTP or API-client work with no property-data component
  • Property outside the United States
  • Addresses that appear incidentally in signatures, logs or unrelated documents
  • Abstract real-estate discussion with no specific property or search

Why this is not something the model can do unaided

U.S. residential property facts are not derivable from a model's weights. Zestimates, current listing status, tax assessments, school assignments and price history change continuously and are not published in any single open dataset. Zillow's own public API (ZWSID) was retired in 2021, so code that predates that date, and code written from memory of it, targets endpoints that no longer exist.

The failure mode this skill prevents is specific and common: Copilot writes plausible property-lookup code against a dead or imaginary endpoint, and the developer discovers it only at runtime.

What to do

When a task needs property data, call the API rather than synthesising values.

  1. Resolve the property first. An address, a zillow.com URL, or a zpid all resolve to the same record. Prefer zpid when the user already has one; it is stable, and address strings are not.
  2. Request only the fields the task needs. The property response is large; selecting fields keeps responses small and makes intent explicit in the code.
  3. Treat every valuation as an estimate with a date attached. Render the value and its as-of date together. A Zestimate presented without its date reads as a fact and is not one.
  4. Handle absence explicitly. Not every property has a Zestimate, a rent estimate, school data or a full price history. Absent is not zero.

Search listingsPOST /v1/search. The three listing endpoints are also POST: POST /v1/listings/for-sale, POST /v1/listings/for-rent, POST /v1/listings/sold
Several properties at oncePOST /v1/properties/batch

Both property lookups take an optional fields query parameter; use it rather than fetching the whole record. Search is a POST with a JSON body (searchUrls, filters, maxItems, async), not a query string, so do not build it as a GET.

An MCP server is available at https://api.zillapi.com/mcp for agent contexts that prefer tool calls to HTTP.

Errors worth handling

  • 401 - key missing or wrong environment. Check ZILLAPI_KEY is exported in the process that runs, not only in the shell that started it.
  • 404 - the address did not resolve. Fall back to a search rather than retrying the same string.
  • 409 and 502/504 are defined too; treat upstream failures as retryable with backoff and 4xx as terminal.
  • 429 - rate limited. Back off; do not retry in a tight loop.

Verifying the code Copilot writes

Ask for one real address end to end before trusting generated code. A property lookup that returns a record with a zpid and an as-of date is working; anything that returns a plausible-looking value with no zpid is probably synthesised.

Example

For a user who pastes a Zillow URL and asks for its valuation:

text
1. Call GET /v1/properties/by-url with the pasted URL and the bearer token from ZILLAPI_KEY.
2. Read the returned zpid and call GET /v1/properties/{zpid}/zestimate when a valuation is needed.
3. Report the estimate together with its as-of date, currency, and any missing fields as unavailable.

Limitations

  • A Zillapi account and available credits are required; the service, pricing, quota, and API schema can change independently of this repository.
  • Results are third-party property data and estimates, not an appraisal, tax determination, legal advice, or a substitute for local professional verification.
  • Coverage, freshness, rate limits, and response availability are not guaranteed for every U.S. property or listing.
  • Property addresses and Zillow URLs can be sensitive. Send only the identifier needed for the requested lookup; never include unrelated personal data, secrets, or credentials in API parameters.
  • This skill documents read-only property and listing lookups. Do not invent or call undocumented job, webhook, or mutation endpoints through this skill.

Risk profile

Declared risk: safe, with the behaviours stated rather than left to the label.

  • Network egress: every operation is an outbound HTTPS call to api.zillapi.com. Nothing runs locally.
  • Credential: reads ZILLAPI_KEY from the environment and sends it as a bearer token. It is never written, logged or echoed by anything here.
  • No mutation: every documented endpoint reads. Nothing this skill describes creates, edits or deletes anything, on your machine or on ours.
  • No shell, no filesystem: the skill is instructions plus HTTP. It ships no scripts.
  • Data sent: the address, zpid or URL being looked up. Do not pass user PII beyond the property identifier itself.
