Tenant complaints to housing board
A Claude Code agent researched building violations and filed 14 staggered 311 complaints with the NYC housing board for the author's apartment.
Inspectors confirmed 11 of 14 predicted violations plus 3 more, and the landlord was fined $2,800, per the author.
Overview
How it was set up
Claude Code running on a $4 VPS. It scraped HPD and DOB databases, loaded the housing maintenance code, and tracked complaints in a sqlite database.
Worth knowing
Single tenant's account with no linked proof. The legal bar on rent increases and the fine are the author's own claims.
