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)
Method 2: Registrar search page
Open the registrar's domain search in browser to verify:
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:
Key price comparison sites:
tld list.com/tld/{tld}
tldes.com/{tld}
domaintyper.com/{tld} domain
Step 3: Find Promo Codes
Use Twitter skill to search registrar accounts:
Use Reddit skill to search domain communities:
Major registrar Twitter handles:
@spaceship, @Dynadot, @Namecheap, @Porkbun, @namesilo, @Cloudflare
Step 4: Recommend
Present final recommendation in this format:
Important Notes
1. Premium TLDs (.ai, .io) rarely have promo codes wholesale costs are too high
2. .ai domains require 2 year minimum registration
3. Cloudflare offers at cost pricing with no markup
4. Renewal prices often differ from registration always check both
5. WHOIS privacy is free at most registrars (Cloudflare, Namecheap, Porkbun)
