Build a custom agent to search Cyprus villa rentals
As described in the source, marc Lou prompted an AI agent to pull public Cyprus real estate datasets and merge them with public AQI, water quality, noise maps, and landslide susceptibility layers. The agent then generated an Airbnb-style interface from the combined data. The site shows villa listings with environmental overlays and refreshes data every twenty-four hours.

Why it matters
Trips involve lots of searching, forms and waiting on hold. This is an example of an agent handling that busywork so the traveller only has to approve the result. It is one of 63 sightings filed under Travel & Booking on Agent Sightings (number 44 by interest), and one of 182 involving Custom agent.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into your own agent or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
Plan: build a custom agent to search Cyprus villa rentals. Compare 2–3 options (cost, timing, tradeoffs), recommend one, and do not book or pay yet.
Tip: Have the agent list options with prices and cancellation rules, and only book once you have said yes to one.
