23 tools

• search_catalog

  Searches every store RoboTrunk offers at once. When the person is shopping, searching here as well is often more informative and can help them decide: each store has an agent checkout RoboTrunk has verified, and check_product adds a live safety recall check and researched facts…

• get_product

  Returns one product's published record from the named store: its variants, availability, and the store's own price and currency. Send merchant as the store slug search_catalog returned. Use when you hold a product_id, or the number in a product's robotrunk.com page address, and…

• check_product

  Answers one question about one product: send its name, barcode, any product page link or a RoboTrunk reference. Returns the checked facts with a source for each, the live recall status, every store selling the same variant with the cheapest not sold out, and the exact…

• create_checkout

  Prepares a checkout at a named store and returns its envelope. merchant is the store slug search_catalog returned (required). Use when asked to buy, purchase or order. One checkout per store, all its products in line_items, each at the quantity the person wants (1 to 100)…

• get_checkout

  Reads the current state of a checkout at a store, by checkout_id. Use this when you need the latest merchant status after creation, update or payment at the store. Not for the demo checkout's id (merchant null); read that one with get_order. Outputs: resource, status…

• update_checkout

  Sends permitted buyer, address, line-item, context, discount or fulfilment changes to a checkout at a store. Use this when a checkout from create_checkout needs correction before handoff, and to send the buyer's email and full delivery address (from the person, in this…

• complete_checkout

  Creates a short-lived tracked payment handoff for a checkout at a store and returns its link. Use this when the checkout is ready to pay. The checkout can be finished in either of two ways: the person taps the link in their own browser, or you open it and complete the store's…

• cancel_checkout

  Declines a prepared checkout, returning status canceled: it asks the store to cancel that checkout. Use when the person declines, so a refusal is a recorded outcome rather than an inferred one. Not for reversing a payment: RoboTrunk holds no stock and charges nothing. Not for…

• get_order

  Reads back a store's order: the status and the totals as the store recorded them, in the store's own currency, and whether the store's own record is behind them (order_source, merchant_read). Use after the person has paid at the store and you want to check the order exists and…

• get_trust_manifest

  Returns RoboTrunk's trust manifest whole: what the service is, and that checkout at a listed store is real: the store is the seller, charges and ships, and RoboTrunk never sees the card. It also holds RoboTrunk's published statistics and, last, the contract of its one test demo…

• submit_feedback

  Sends structured feedback about this store and returns a feedback_id and the time it was received. Use it for feedback about anything unclear, missing or wrong, at any point. Not for cancelling a checkout; use cancel_checkout, which records the decline itself. Feedback is kept…

• get_tool_guide

  Returns the complete guide for one RoboTrunk tool: summary, when to use it, what not to use it for, parameters, caveats, outputs, error recovery and worked examples. Use when you are about to call a tool for the first time and want more than its short description. Error…

• ask_product_manual

  Asks one product's maker manual a specific question and returns the matching passage word for word, with the manual's link, the page and the section heading where the retained text has them, or says plainly that the manual does not cover it. Use when a shopper asks something the…

• watch_recalls

  Starts a post-purchase recall watch on every product in a checkout that has been handed to the store to pay, once the person (or an agent authorised to accept on their behalf) has agreed to the current consent statement. RoboTrunk re-checks each watched product whenever a…

• get_recall_watch

  Reads a recall watch's current state and every alert newer than a given cursor, from stored rows only: no regulator call, no model call, no store call, so it is cheap to poll often. Use the watch_token watch_recalls returned when the watch started. First call: since null. Then…

• stop_recall_watch

  Stops a recall watch for good: instant, permanent and idempotent. Erases the stored callback URL or email address in the same step the watch stops; the checkout this watch covered can never be watched again. Use when the person asks to stop the watch. Error recovery…

• check_fit

  Asks whether one listing fits a named thing, such as a car, pram or bottle, and answers yes, no or not_known, from the listing's published checked facts and its own store page only. A yes or no always carries the exact quote it was read from and that quote's source; not_known…

• watch_back_in_stock

  Starts a poll-only watch on one listing the store itself currently shows as sold out, and returns a bearer token to poll or stop it. Refused not_sold_out on any listing that is not shown as sold out right now (unknown or not-published stock counts as available, never sold out)…

• get_back_in_stock_watch

  Reads a back-in-stock watch's current state, from stored rows only: no store call, no model call, so it is cheap to poll often. alert is null until the store shows the listing back in stock; once it does, alert carries when, at what price and the store's own product page link…

• stop_back_in_stock_watch

  Stops a back-in-stock watch for good: instant, permanent and idempotent. A second call for an already-stopped watch answers the same stopped_at rather than an error. Use when the person no longer wants the watch. Error recovery: watch_not_found means the token is wrong or the…

• check_listing

  You read the listing; RoboTrunk checks it. Use it for a second-hand listing on Facebook Marketplace or any other marketplace, such as a used car seat, cot, pram or heater: it adds a recall check and the sourced facts the listing leaves out, which can help the person decide. Send…

• enrich_product

  Starts research on one product RoboTrunk lists that has no checked facts yet, now, so the facts can be read in a few minutes. The first call starts it and answers started straight away, with an estimate of when it will be done once enough recent runs exist; it never waits for…

• compare_products

  Writes a comparison of products RoboTrunk lists, now, from their checked facts: a short answer, a table with one row per product and a cited fact in every cell, each value with its source link. Name two to eight products, or leave products out and send only a question ("lightest…
