angi-mcp

MCP server for Angi (formerly Angie's List) — find home-service pros by trade and city, and read their ratings, profiles and reviews.

Angi serves its pages only to a real browser, so requests route through the user's own angi.com tab via the fetchproxy browser extension, reusing their existing session. The trade/city taxonomy is read directly from Angi's public sitemaps and needs no browser at all.

No Angi account or credentials are required. Everything this server reads is public.

This project was developed and is maintained by AI (Claude). Use at your own discretion.

Install

npm install -g @chrischall/angi-mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "angi": { "command": "angi-mcp" }
  }
}

You also need the fetchproxy Transporter browser extension, with an open angi.com tab and its site access allowing angi.com. On the first request the extension shows a pairing code to approve; the trust then persists.

Run angi_healthcheck to confirm the bridge is connected.

Tools

Tool	What it does
`angi_search_pros`	Pros for a trade in a US city, with ratings, review counts, years in business, service area, amenities. 10 per page.
`angi_get_pro`	One pro's full profile and ratings breakdown.
`angi_get_reviews`	Reviews on a pro's profile — rating, text, reported cost, date, categories, the pro's response. Filterable by rating.
`angi_list_trades`	Every trade slug Angi publishes (~312). No bridge needed.
`angi_list_cities`	Cities Angi publishes pages for, per trade. No bridge needed.
`angi_healthcheck`	Bridge connection state.

Signed-in tools (need the browser tab signed in to Angi):

Tool	What it does
`angi_get_account`	Your identity and open/closed project counts.
`angi_list_my_projects`	Your Angi projects, open and closed.
`angi_list_my_reviews`	Reviews you've written, plus pros awaiting a rating.

Searches take slugs, not free text — resolve them first:

angi_list_trades   { contains: "duct" }      -> "air-duct-cleaning"
angi_list_cities   { trade: "plumbing", state: "nc", contains: "char" }
angi_search_pros   { trade: "plumbing", state: "nc", city: "charlotte", compact: true }

Pass compact: true when browsing or ranking — it projects each record to a slim summary instead of the full ~1KB payload.

Ratings

Each pro carries two overall ratings and they differ on purpose:

rating (averageRatings.OVERALL) — unrounded. Rank on this.
displayRating (averageOverallRating) — the rounded value Angi shows.

Per-dimension ratings (quality, value, punctuality, professionalism, responsiveness) come through in the full record.

isSponsored: true marks paid placement, not a quality signal.

Limits

No zip-code filtering. Angi's ?zip= parameter is inert — a Charlotte URL returns Charlotte pros regardless. Location comes from the city slug.
Account record shapes are unverified. The account used to map my.angi.com held zero projects and zero reviews, so only the envelopes were observed. angi_list_my_projects and angi_list_my_reviews return records raw and set recordFieldsVerified: false rather than projecting onto field names nobody has seen. See docs/ANGI-API.md.
The inbox is not readable. Angi's messages run on the Twilio Conversations SDK; the proxy endpoints reject the session cookie alone (401), so messages need the Twilio client rather than an HTTP GET.
Cannot be hosted remotely. Like every browser-bridge server in this fleet, it needs a signed-in tab on the machine it runs on, so it cannot be served to claude.ai from mcp-host.

Without the MCP

skills/angi-fpx/ is a shell-out skill that reads the same data with the fpx CLI and no running server — useful in scripts or on a machine where the MCP isn't installed.

Development

npm install
npm run build      # tsc --noEmit + esbuild bundle
npm test

docs/ANGI-API.md records the live-captured request/response shapes, including the verified negative results. Read it before changing src/parse.ts.
