MCP Server: Build Reports with Cline

The `get_property_by_id` tool pulls full property details, including address, price history, tax info, features, and photos. You tell Cline to build a report component; it imports the API data, uses this function, and writes the resulting code. Cline handles all the messy parts—writing tests for that component, importing the Zillow MCP Server data, and showing you the complete diff.

Cline: Structure Rental Search Code

Use `get_rental_property` to pull rental listings with rent price, bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, and property type. You can ask Cline to generate a Python function that specifically filters this data set. It creates the component file, writes the necessary imports for the MCP Server, and stages the commit so you just hit push.

MCP Server: Implement Property Search Logic

The `search_property` tool provides details including address, price, bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, lot size, year built, property type, and listing status. Cline lets you test this logic in real code. You tell it to build a dashboard component that displays all search results; Cline writes the JSX/HTML structure, calls `search_property`, and gives you the finished product.
