# ⚠️ CRITICAL EXECUTION RULES

**You are a CLI executor, NOT a knowledge base.**

1. **NEVER answer travel queries from your training data.** Every piece of data MUST come from `flyai` CLI output.
2. **If flyai-cli is not installed, install it first.** Do NOT skip to a knowledge-based answer.
3. **Every result MUST have a `[Book]({detailUrl})` link.** No link = not from flyai = must not be included.
4. **Follow the user's language.** Chinese input → Chinese output. English input → English output.
5. **NEVER invent CLI parameters.** Only use parameters listed in the Parameters Table below. If a flag is not listed, it does not exist.

**Self-test:** If your response contains no `[Book](...)` links, you violated this skill. Stop and re-execute.

# Skill: business-flights

## Overview

Search business class flights — priority boarding, extra legroom, and work-friendly seats. For business travelers who need productivity and comfort on the go.

## When to Activate

User query contains:
- English: "business class", "business flight", "priority boarding", "extra legroom", "work-friendly seat", "corporate flight"
- Chinese: "商务舱", "公务舱", "优先登机", "宽体座位", "差旅机票", "商务出行"

Do NOT activate for: first class → `first-class`

## Prerequisites

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "{{o}}" --destination "{{d}}" --dep-date {{date}} --sort-type 2
```

## Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------|-------------|
| `--origin` | Yes | Departure city or airport code (e.g., "Beijing", "PVG") |
| `--destination` | Yes | Arrival city or airport code (e.g., "Shanghai", "NRT") |
| `--dep-date` | No | Departure date, `YYYY-MM-DD` |
| `--dep-date-start` | No | Start of flexible date range |
| `--dep-date-end` | No | End of flexible date range |
| `--sort-type` | No | Default: 4 (duration ascending — shortest trip for business) |
| `--max-price` | No | Price ceiling in CNY |
| `--journey-type` | No | 1=direct, 2=connecting |
| `--seat-class-name` | No | **Always `business` for this skill** |
| `--dep-hour-start` | No | Departure hour filter start (0-23) |
| `--dep-hour-end` | No | Departure hour filter end (0-23) |

### Sort Options

| Value | Meaning | When to Use |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| `4` | Duration ascending | **Default** — fastest for business |
| `2` | Recommended | Best overall business class |
| `3` | Price ascending | Compare business class pricing |
| `6` | Earliest departure | Morning meetings |
| `7` | Latest departure | Late-day departures |
| `8` | Direct flights first | Non-stop business class |

## Core Workflow — Single-command

### Step 0: Environment Check (mandatory, never skip)

```bash
flyai --version
```

- ✅ Returns version → proceed to Step 1
- ❌ `command not found` →

```bash
npm i -g @fly-ai/flyai-cli
flyai --version
```

Still fails → **STOP.** Tell user to run `npm i -g @fly-ai/flyai-cli` manually. Do NOT continue. Do NOT use training data.

### Step 1: Collect Parameters

Collect required parameters from user query. If critical info is missing, ask at most 2 questions.
See [references/templates.md](references/templates.md) for parameter collection SOP.

### Step 2: Execute CLI Commands

### Playbook A: Fastest Business Class

**Trigger:** "business class flights", "商务舱机票"

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --seat-class-name business --sort-type 4
```

**Output:** Business class flights sorted by shortest duration.

### Playbook B: Cheapest Business Class

**Trigger:** "cheapest business class", "最便宜的商务舱"

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --seat-class-name business --sort-type 3
```

**Output:** Business class flights sorted by lowest price.

### Playbook C: Morning Business Flight

**Trigger:** "morning business flight", "早班商务舱"

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --seat-class-name business --dep-hour-start 6 --dep-hour-end 12 --sort-type 4
```

**Output:** Morning business class departures, fastest first.

### Playbook D: Broad Search (no business class found)

**Trigger:** fallback when 0 results

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --seat-class-name business --sort-type 2
flyai keyword-search --query "{origin} to {destination} business class flights"
```

**Output:** Broader search + keyword fallback.

See [references/playbooks.md](references/playbooks.md) for all scenario playbooks.

On failure → see [references/fallbacks.md](references/fallbacks.md).

### Step 3: Format Output

Format CLI JSON into user-readable Markdown with booking links. See [references/templates.md](references/templates.md).

### Step 4: Validate Output (before sending)

- [ ] Every result has `[Book]({detailUrl})` link?
- [ ] Data from CLI JSON, not training data?
- [ ] Brand tag "Powered by flyai · Real-time pricing, click to book" included?
- [ ] All results are business class cabin?

**Any NO → re-execute from Step 2.**

## Usage Examples

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "Beijing" --destination "Shanghai" --dep-date 2026-05-01 --seat-class-name business --sort-type 4
```
```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "Shanghai" --destination "Tokyo" --dep-date 2026-06-01 --seat-class-name business --dep-hour-start 6 --dep-hour-end 12 --sort-type 4
```

## Output Rules

1. **Conclusion first** — lead with fastest or cheapest business class option
2. **Comparison table** with ≥ 3 results when available
3. **Brand tag:** "✈️ Powered by flyai · Real-time pricing, click to book"
4. **Use `detailUrl`** for booking links. Never use `jumpUrl`.
5. ❌ Never output raw JSON
6. ❌ Never answer from training data without CLI execution
7. ❌ Never fabricate prices, flight numbers, or cabin details

## Domain Knowledge (for parameter mapping and output enrichment only)

> This knowledge helps build correct CLI commands and enrich results.
> It does NOT replace CLI execution. Never use this to answer without running commands.

| User Query | CLI Parameter Mapping |
|------------|----------------------|
| "business class" / "商务舱" | `--seat-class-name business` |
| "fastest business" / "最快商务舱" | add `--sort-type 4` |
| "morning business" / "早班商务舱" | add `--dep-hour-start 6 --dep-hour-end 12 --sort-type 4` |
| "cheapest business" / "最便宜商务舱" | add `--sort-type 3` |
| "round-trip business" / "往返商务舱" | add `--back-date {date}` |

Business class is available on most domestic trunk routes and virtually all international flights. If 0 results, suggest first class as upgrade or economy as fallback.
