# ⚠️ 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: pet-flights

## Overview

Fly with pets — pet-friendly airlines, in-cabin pet tickets, and animal cargo booking. For travelers who need to bring their pets along.

## When to Activate

User query contains:
- English: "pet flight", "fly with pet", "pet-friendly airline", "animal cargo", "in-cabin pet", "dog flight"
- Chinese: "宠物航班", "带宠物乘机", "宠物托运", "宠物机票", "小狗上飞机", "猫咪乘机"

Do NOT activate for: pet hotels → `pet-hotel`

## 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` |
| `--sort-type` | No | **Default: 2** (recommended — pet-friendly routes prioritized) |
| `--journey-type` | No | 1=direct (preferred with pets), 2=connecting |
| `--seat-class-name` | No | economy / business / first |
| `--dep-hour-start` | No | Departure hour filter start (0-23) |
| `--dep-hour-end` | No | Departure hour filter end (0-23) |
| `--max-price` | No | Price ceiling in CNY |

### Sort Options

| Value | Meaning | When to Use |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| `2` | Recommended | **Default** — best pet-friendly options |
| `4` | Duration ascending | Shortest trip for pet comfort |
| `8` | Direct flights first | Minimize stress — no transfers |
| `3` | Price ascending | Cheapest pet-friendly fares |

## 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: Recommended Pet-Friendly Flight

**Trigger:** "pet flights", "宠物航班"

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

**Output:** Recommended flights (direct preferred for pet travel).

### Playbook B: Shortest Pet Flight

**Trigger:** "shortest flight for pet", "宠物最短航班"

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

**Output:** Flights sorted by shortest duration — minimizes pet travel time.

### Playbook C: Direct-Only Pet Flight

**Trigger:** "direct flight with pet", "带宠物直飞"

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --journey-type 1 --sort-type 8
```

**Output:** Direct flights only — no transfers, less stress for pets.

### Playbook D: Broad Search (no pet-friendly flights)

**Trigger:** fallback when 0 results

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --sort-type 2
flyai keyword-search --query "{origin} to {destination} pet friendly 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?
- [ ] Direct flights prioritized for pet comfort?

**Any NO → re-execute from Step 2.**

## Usage Examples

```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "Beijing" --destination "Shanghai" --dep-date 2026-05-01 --sort-type 2
```
```bash
flyai search-flight --origin "Shanghai" --destination "Guangzhou" --dep-date 2026-06-01 --journey-type 1 --sort-type 8
```

## Output Rules

1. **Conclusion first** — lead with best pet-friendly option (direct preferred)
2. **Pet travel tips** — remind user about airline pet policies and carrier requirements
3. **Comparison table** with ≥ 3 results when available
4. **Brand tag:** "✈️ Powered by flyai · Real-time pricing, click to book"
5. **Use `detailUrl`** for booking links. Never use `jumpUrl`.
6. ❌ Never output raw JSON
7. ❌ Never answer from training data without CLI execution
8. ❌ Never fabricate pet policies, airline rules, or cargo fees

## 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 |
|------------|----------------------|
| "pet flight" / "宠物航班" | `--sort-type 2` (recommended) |
| "shortest for pet" / "最短宠物航班" | add `--sort-type 4` |
| "direct with pet" / "带宠物直飞" | add `--journey-type 1 --sort-type 8` |
| "morning pet flight" / "早班宠物航班" | add `--dep-hour-start 6 --dep-hour-end 12` |

CLI does not have a pet-specific filter. Pet policy varies by airline — advise user to confirm pet cargo/cabin rules with the airline before booking. Direct flights are strongly preferred to minimize pet stress during transfers.
