Domain Hunter Skill

Help users find and purchase domain names at the best price.

Workflow

Step 1: Generate Domain Ideas & Check Availability

Based on the user's project description, generate 5-10 creative domain name suggestions.

Guidelines:

• Keep names short (under 15 characters)
• Make them memorable and brandable
• Consider: {action}{noun}, {noun}{suffix}, {prefix}{keyword}
• Common suffixes: app, io, hq, ly, ify, now, hub

CRITICAL: Always check availability before presenting domains to user!

Use one of these methods to verify availability:

Method 1: WHOIS check (most reliable)

# Check if domain is available via whois
whois {domain}.{tld} 2>/dev/null | grep -i "no match\|not found\|available\|no data found" && echo "AVAILABLE" || echo "TAKEN"

Method 2: Registrar search page Open the registrar's domain search in browser to verify:

open "https://www.spaceship.com/domains/?search={domain}.{tld}"

Method 3: Bulk check via Namecheap/Dynadot

• https://www.namecheap.com/domains/registration/results/?domain={domain}
• https://www.dynadot.com/domain/search?domain={domain}

IMPORTANT:

• Only present domains that are confirmed AVAILABLE
• Mark any uncertain domains with "(unverified)"
• Present suggestions to user and wait for confirmation before proceeding
• Ask user to pick their preferred options or provide feedback
• Only move to Step 2 after user approves domain name(s)

Step 2: Compare Prices

Use WebSearch to find current prices:

WebSearch: "cheapest .{tld} domain registrar 2026 site:tld-list.com"
WebSearch: ".{tld} domain price comparison tldes.com"

Key price comparison sites:

• tld-list.com/tld/{tld}
• tldes.com/{tld}
• domaintyper.com/{tld}-domain

Step 3: Find Promo Codes
