-d '{"query":"Austin, TX","num":5}'ExecuteResponse component (see sessions and records); the record keys below are what the adapter emits. A first call with the example above returns search_id, the records and the charge.Result record
Every item in results[] carries record_id and title (contract, always present) and usually url and snippet. The keys below are the documented tier: produced deterministically by this capability, omitted when the source has no value, checked against recorded source fixtures in our test suite, and published as the RealestateSearchRecord component (all optional, extra keys allowed) so generated clients type them. The wire schema itself still validates only the base keys. See stability tiers.

Caveats
- Pages are capped at 24 listings; a filtered page can be empty while
has_moreis true.
Follow-ups
- Paging: Provider page number;
morefetches the next page from the source. Send{ "search_id": "…", "action": "more" }whilehas_moreis true; tolerate an empty page and stop after a bounded number of pages. - Update: Re-run with changed parameters (merged into the stored query); page state resets, search_id stays. Params accept any subset of the request fields (
RealestateSearchUpdateParams). - Record actions:
details: Property facts and reported sale history, with the listing link.
- Detail behaviour: First
detailscall fetches from the provider (billed as stated); repeats are cached and free.detailsis a fresh property request: $0.004; repeated calls are cached.
curl -s -X POST https://api.powerups-ai.store/v1/follow-up \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AIPA_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"record_id":"rec_…","action":"details"}'Record detail objects of this capability are provider-shaped: documented by observation, not by schema. Full follow-up semantics: follow-up.
Typed client
With types generated from the public document (see types, client and samples) the call is path-keyed and the body is checked at compile time:
const { data, error } = await client.POST("/v1/capabilities/realestate.search/execute", {
body: {
"query": "Austin, TX",
"num": 5
},
});
if (error) throw new Error(`${error.error.code}: ${error.error.message}`);
for (const record of data.results) console.log(record.record_id, record.title);
