Access and checks

How we review

Extended accessThe tool runs code or makes network calls and only reads external data.

  • Starts an HTTP server that reads CIAN's internal API through cloudscraper
  • Searches apartments and price history and publishes nothing

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

The server talks to CIAN's internal API through cloudscraper and gives an agent four tools: apartment search by district or administrative area with price, room count and floor filters, the full price history for a specific listing, a rental yield and payback estimate, and clearing the in-memory cache. Results are cached in the process's memory to speed up repeated queries and reset on restart. It runs locally via uv run or in Docker and listens over HTTP on its own port.

Who it is for. For people searching for an apartment in Moscow or evaluating real estate as an investment who want to do it through an agent.

Good fit when

  • You want to filter apartments by district and budget in one request
  • You want to see how a specific listing's price has changed over time
  • You want a rough rental yield and payback estimate to compare options

Not a fit when

  • You need search outside Moscow: the district data in the project only covers Moscow
  • You need a precise financial estimate: the yield calculation is simplified, not full investment analysis
  • You need an official CIAN API: the server uses the site's internal, undocumented interface

Example request

Find one-bedroom apartments on CIAN inside the Third Ring Road for up to 12 million rubles

Limitations

The project has a single author, no license, and is marked in the README as private, use at your own discretion. The server depends on CIAN's internal API, which can change without notice and break it. The cache is in-memory only and does not survive a restart. District data is limited to Moscow and the Moscow region.

How to disable. Stop the server process or container and remove it from your MCP client config.

FAQ

Do I need a CIAN API key?

Can the server run in Docker?

Yes, the repository has a Dockerfile, built with docker build -t cian-mcp . and run with docker run -p 8080:8080 cian-mcp.
