RentReboot Apartment Search tools (13, 2 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsfind_search_neighborhoodsFreeLook up neighborhood names and ids the connected renter can add to their alert search, in their own market. Returns names only, not listings.
get_accountFreeShow the connected renter's plan (free or paid), whether apartment alerts are on or paused, market, alert frequency, and delivery channel, plus a link to manage the account.
get_guideFreeRetrieve a public RentReboot guide as Markdown using its slug.
get_rent_dataFreeRetrieve aggregate asking-rent percentiles and sample sizes for a published NYC neighborhood. Values are not individual listings or personal data.
get_search_preferencesFreeShow the connected renter's saved alert search: budget, bedrooms, bathrooms, neighborhoods, move-in date, no-fee and rent-stabilized filters, amenities, subway lines, alert frequency, and channel. Read this before changing the search.
list_alerted_listingsFreeList apartments RentReboot already sent to the connected renter, newest first, with saved, hidden, and contacted/toured/applied state. Pass nextCursor to see older alerts (up to the latest 200). Hidden apartments are left out unless includeHidden is true. Links open the listing through RentReboot. Never returns account identifiers or broker contact details.
list_housing_lottery_applicationsFreeList the connected renter’s provider-confirmed NYC Housing Connect application statuses. Read-only. Excludes credentials, application numbers, income, household details, email, and internal identifiers.
list_neighborhoodsFreeList NYC neighborhoods that have published RentReboot asking-rent percentile data.
list_upcoming_matchesFreeList historical apartment records matching the connected renter’s saved requirements, useful for planning upcoming availability. Read-only and excludes broker contact details and account identifiers.
search_guidesFreeSearch RentReboot public NYC renter guides by keyword and return canonical URLs.
set_apartment_alertsFreePause (enabled=false) or resume (enabled=true) the connected renter's apartment alerts. Their search, plan, billing, and Housing Connect settings stay as they are. Confirm with the renter first.
update_alerted_listingwrite actionFreeChange the connected renter's state for one apartment from their alerts: save it, hide it, or mark it contacted, toured, or applied (status "none" clears it). Same as the buttons on the RentReboot dashboard. Use a listingId from list_alerted_listings.
update_search_preferenceswrite actionFreeChange the connected renter's saved alert search. Send only the fields to change; everything else stays. Saves exactly like the RentReboot preferences page, so its rules apply (for example a search always keeps at least one neighborhood). For a new account, set city together with neighborhoods once; after that the market cannot change here. Confirm the change with the renter first. Weekly recap pauses individual alerts.

RentReboot MCP: apartment alerts, renter guides and NYC rent data
RentReboot connects AI assistants to public NYC renter guides and neighborhood asking-rent data. With the renter's scoped OAuth consent, assistants can also read their apartment alerts, manage their saved search, save or track alerted apartments, and view Housing Lottery application statuses.
Hosted MCP endpoint: https://rentreboot.com/api/mcp Transport: Streamable HTTP Authentication: No account for public tools. OAuth 2.1 with PKCE for personal tools.
This is the public setup and discovery repository for RentReboot's hosted MCP service. It contains installation metadata and documentation, not the production server implementation. Nothing needs to be deployed or installed from this repository.
Connect
Add the remote server URL in an MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP:
{
"mcpServers": {
"rentreboot": {
"url": "https://rentreboot.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}Clients use different configuration formats; use your client's remote-server setup if it does not accept this JSON. For personal features, choose its OAuth connection flow and sign in on rentreboot.com. New renters can create a free account through the same verified-email flow. Never paste an email code, private account link or token into a chat or configuration example.
Public tools
Public tools are read-only and do not require an account or API key. Asking-rent percentiles describe aggregate data; they are not individual apartment availability or a guaranteed future rent.
Personal tools with OAuth
Ask the renter to confirm a change before calling a write tool. Personal tools act only on the connected renter's account. Available tools depend on the client and granted scopes; tools/list is authoritative. Some clients may also expose a scoped checkout-link tool, described in the authentication documentation.
Upcoming matches are historical records useful for planning, not promises of future availability. The service does not contact brokers or submit Housing Connect applications through MCP tools. Account deletion, unsubscribing and paid-plan cancellation remain website workflows. Public MCP tools are available without a paid plan; paid RentReboot alert features follow the account's website plan.
