Usage Examples

Find a plumber

"Find me highly-rated plumbers in Denver, CO"

The agent will call angi_search_providers with service_type: "plumber" and location: "Denver, CO".

Get provider details

"Show me reviews for this plumber: /pro/acme-plumbing-123/"

The agent will call angi_provider_profile with the URL.

Request a quote

"Request quotes for bathroom tile installation in zip code 80203"

The agent will call angi_request_quote with your project details.

Book an appointment

"Book a house cleaning appointment for next Saturday morning"

The agent will call angi_book_appointment with your preferred date and time.

Check your projects

"What home projects do I have going on right now?"

The agent will call angi_get_projects.

Authentication Flow

Angi uses browser-based authentication:

1. Call angi_login — the MCP server opens Angi's login page in a headless browser
2. Complete login manually (Angi may require email/password or Google sign-in)
3. Call angi_status to confirm you're logged in
4. Your session is saved to ~/.strider/angi/ and reused automatically in future sessions

Session Storage

~/.strider/angi/
├── cookies.json    # Browser cookies (auto-managed)
└── session.json    # Session metadata

Technical Details

• Uses Patchright (Playwright with stealth patches) for browser automation
• Headless Chrome — no visible browser window
• Cookie persistence for seamless re-authentication
• Graceful cleanup on server shutdown

Limitations

• Requires manual login (Angi does not provide a public API)
• UI scraping may break if Angi updates their website layout
• Some features (booking, messaging) require an active Angi account

Troubleshooting

"Not logged in" errors Run angi_login, complete login in the browser, then call angi_status.

"Browser failed to launch" Ensure Playwright browsers are installed: npx patchright install chromium

Empty search results Try a more specific service type or verify the location format (city, state or zip code).
