Use when user wants to buy a domain, check domain prices, find domain deals, compare registrars, or search for .ai/.com domains.","description":"# Domain Hunter Skill\n\nHelp users find and purchase domain names at the best price.\n\n## Workflow\n\n### Step 1: Generate Domain Ideas & Check Availability\n\nBased on the user's project description, generate 5-10 creative domain name suggestions.\n\n**Guidelines:**\n- Keep names short (under 15 characters)\n- Make them memorable and brandable\n- Consider: `{action}{noun}`, `{noun}{suffix}`, `{prefix}{keyword}`\n- Common suffixes: app, io, hq, ly, ify, now, hub\n\n**CRITICAL: Always check availability before presenting domains to user!**\n\nUse one of these methods to verify availability:\n\n**Method 1: WHOIS check (most reliable)**\n```bash\n# Check if domain is available via whois\nwhois {domain}.{tld} 2>/dev/null | grep -i \"no match\\|not found\\|available\\|no data found\" && echo \"AVAILABLE\" || echo \"TAKEN\"\n```\n\n**Method 2: Registrar search page**\nOpen the registrar's domain search in browser to verify:\n```bash\nopen \"https://www.spaceship.com/domains/?search={domain}.{tld}\"\n```\n\n**Method 3: Bulk check via Namecheap/Dynadot**\n- https://www.namecheap.com/domains/registration/results/?domain={domain}\n- https://www.dynadot.com/domain/search?domain={domain}\n\n**IMPORTANT:** \n- Only present domains that are confirmed AVAILABLE\n- Mark any uncertain domains with \"(unverified)\" \n- Present suggestions to user and **wait for confirmation** before proceeding\n- Ask user to pick their preferred options or provide feedback\n- Only move to Step 2 after user approves domain name(s)\n\n### Step 2: Compare Prices\n\nUse **WebSearch** to find current prices:\n\n```\nWebSearch: \"cheapest .{tld} domain registrar 2026 site:tld-list.com\"\nWebSearch: \".{tld} domain price comparison tldes.com\"\n```\n\n**Key price comparison sites:**\n- tld-list.com/tld/{tld}\n- tldes.com/{tld}\n- domaintyper.com/{tld}-domain\n\n### Step 3: Find Promo Codes\n\nUse **Twitter skill** to search registrar accounts:\n\n```bash\ncd <twitter_skill_directory>\npython3 scripts/search_tweets.py \"from:{registrar} promo code\" --type Latest --limit 15\npython3 scripts/search_tweets.py \"{registrar} promo code coupon\" --type Latest --limit 15\n```\n\nUse **Reddit skill** to search domain communities:\n\n```bash\ncd <reddit_skill_directory>\npython3 scripts/search_posts.py \"{registrar} promo code\" --limit 15\npython3 scripts/search_posts.py \"{registrar} coupon discount\" --subreddit Domains --limit 10\n```\n\n**Major registrar Twitter handles:**\n- @spaceship, @Dynadot, @Namecheap, @Porkbun, @namesilo, @Cloudflare\n\n### Step 4: Recommend\n\nPresent final recommendation in this format:\n\n```\n## Recommendation\n\n**Domain:** example.ai\n**Best Registrar:** Spaceship\n**Price:** $68.98/year (2-year minimum = $137.96)\n**Promo Code:** None available for .ai\n**Purchase Link:** https://www.spaceship.com/\n\n### Price Comparison\n| Registrar | Year 1 | Renewal | 2-Year Total |\n|-----------|--------|---------|--------------|\n| Spaceship | $68.98 | $68.98  | $137.96      |\n| Cloudflare| $70.00 | $70.00  | $140.00      |\n| Porkbun   | $71.40 | $72.40  | $143.80      |\n```\n\n## Important Notes\n\n1. **Premium TLDs** (.ai, .io) rarely have promo codes - wholesale costs are too high\n2. **.ai domains** require 2-year minimum registration\n3. **Cloudflare** offers at-cost pricing with no markup\n4. **Renewal prices** often differ from registration - always check both\n5. **WHOIS privacy** is free at most registrars (Cloudflare, Namecheap, Porkbun)\n\n##
