Flathive MCP

An official Model Context Protocol server provided by Flathive that allows AI agents to search for rooms, share houses, and flatmate listings across Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and India. It supports filtering by country, area, weekly rent range, bedrooms, and move-in date, providing read-only access to live rental data without requiring user sign-in.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

Search published Flathive room/property listings by location and filters. country_type is required — ask the user which country they're searching in, or infer it from a suburb/city they name, before calling this tool. Each result includes an approximate lat/lng for map display — it is deliberately jittered (~100m) for landlord privacy, never the exact address, so don't present it as the precise location; the exact address is only shared with the landlord's consent after contact.

Get a summary of one Flathive property listing by its public easyId (starts with "P") — bio, features, tags, and photo URLs for the model to describe. Deliberately no interactive widget: always surface the returned url and tell the user to open it on Flathive to see the full photo gallery, exact location, and to message/contact the advertiser — none of that is possible through this tool.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code
