Willhaben Listing Creator
Create listings on Willhaben.at via browser automation.
First-Time Setup
Check if config/user-preferences.json exists in the skill folder.
- If missing → run setup flow (see
references/SETUP.md) - If exists → read preferences and apply to all listings
User preferences include: location, shipping, description style, pricing strategy, disclaimers.
Workflow
1. Receive Item Details
- User sends photos (via WhatsApp/chat)
- Optional: user provides details (condition, category, price range)
2. Market Research
Before suggesting a price, search Willhaben for similar/identical items:
- Search willhaben.at for the item
- Note price range of comparable listings
- Check sold prices if available
- Report findings to user:
- Neupreis (new price) - Marktpreis (what similar items are listed for) - Empfohlener Preis (recommended selling price)
3. Generate Listing
- Analyze photos to understand the item
- Generate:
- Title: Concise, searchable (German) - Description: SHORT and casual - real people don't write essays. 2-3 sentences max. Mention key facts only. - Price: Based on market research, suggest realistic price - Package size: Estimate weight category for shipping (3kg / 10kg / 31.5kg)
- Ask user:
- Location (Bezirk) - if not in preferences - Any damage/issues to mention - If they want a more detailed description (default: no)
- Present draft for confirmation including package size estimate

Troubleshooting
Category not selecting
Even if the category appears, you must click on the radio/option area to actually select it. The validation error "Kategorie muss gewählt werden" means it wasn't clicked.
Images not uploading
Use inputRef with the "Bild auswählen" button reference (e.g., inputRef=e12). Do NOT use selector: input[type="file"] - it doesn't work reliably on this site.
Element refs going stale
Always take a fresh snapshot before interacting. Refs change after page updates.
Login required
If not logged in, the profile should have saved credentials. If needed, navigate to login page or ask user to log in manually in the browser.
