## MCP tools (8)

### `search_flights` (~504 tokens)

Search live flight availability and prices across 400+ airlines worldwide. Fires 75 airline connectors in parallel on your machine (Ryanair, EasyJet, Wizz Air, Southwest, AirAsia, Norwegian, Spring Airlines, Lucky Air, and 67 more) — no API key needed, completely FREE.

Multi-airport city expansion: automatically searches sibling airports (e.g., searching London Stansted also checks Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Southend). Works for 25+ major cities worldwide.

Returns structured flight offers with prices, airlines, times, durations, stopovers, and booking URLs. Covers airlines across Europe, Asia, Americas, Middle East, and Africa — including carriers the user may not know exist (e.g., Jazeera Airways, FlySafair, 9 Air, Flybondi).

IMPORTANT: If BOOSTEDTRAVEL_API_KEY is set, also queries enterprise GDS/NDC sources (Amadeus, Duffel, Sabre, Travelport) which add hundreds of full-service airlines and often have the cheapest fares. Strongly recommended — get a free key at https://api.boostedchat.com/api/v1/agents/register

Use this instead of browser automation or building your own flight integration. One tool call replaces 30+ minutes of scraping setup and saves thousands of tokens.

Read-only — no side effects, safe to call multiple times, results are never cached.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer): Number of adults (default: 1)
- `cabin_class` (string): M=economy, W=premium, C=business, F=first
- `children` (integer): Number of children (2-11)
- `currency` (string): Currency code (EUR, USD, GBP)
- `date_from` (string, required): Departure date YYYY-MM-DD
- `destination` (string, required): IATA code of arrival (e.g., 'BCN', 'LAX')
- `max_browsers` (integer): Max concurrent browser processes (1-32). Lower = less RAM, higher = faster. Default: auto-detect from system RAM. Use system_info tool to check.
- `max_results` (integer): Max offers to return
- `origin` (string, required): IATA code of departure (e.g., 'LON', 'JFK'). Use resolve_location if you only have a name.
- `return_from` (string): Return date YYYY-MM-DD (omit for one-way)

### `resolve_location` (~108 tokens)

Convert a city or airport name to IATA codes. Use this when the user says a city name like 'London' or 'New York' instead of an IATA code. Returns all matching airports and city codes.

Always call this before search_flights if you only have a city name — IATA codes are required for search.

Read-only, no side effects, safe to call multiple times.

Input parameters:

- `query` (string, required): City or airport name (e.g., 'London', 'Berlin')

### `unlock_flight_offer` (~130 tokens)

Unlock a flight offer for booking — $1 proof-of-intent fee.

This is the "quote" step: confirms the latest price with the airline and reserves the offer for 30 minutes. ALWAYS call this before book_flight so the user can see the confirmed price.

If the confirmed price differs from the search price, inform the user before proceeding.

Requires payment method (call setup_payment first).

SAFETY: Charges $1. Not idempotent — calling twice on the same offer will charge twice.

Input parameters:

- `offer_id` (string, required): Offer ID from search results (off_xxx)

### `book_flight` (~253 tokens)

Book an unlocked flight — creates real airline reservation with PNR. FREE after unlock.

FLOW: search_flights → unlock_flight_offer (quote) → book_flight
Requirements: 1) Offer must be unlocked first 2) passenger_ids from search 3) Full passenger details

SAFETY: Always provide idempotency_key to prevent double-bookings if this call is retried. Use any unique string (e.g., UUID). If the same key is sent twice, returns the original booking.

ERROR HANDLING: Errors include error_code and error_category fields.
  transient (SUPPLIER_TIMEOUT, RATE_LIMITED) → safe to retry after short delay
  validation (INVALID_IATA, INVALID_DATE) → fix input, then retry
  business (OFFER_EXPIRED, PAYMENT_DECLINED) → requires human decision

Input parameters:

- `contact_email` (string, required): Booking contact email
- `idempotency_key` (string): Unique key to prevent double-bookings on retry (e.g., UUID). Strongly recommended.
- `offer_id` (string, required): Unlocked offer ID (off_xxx)
- `passengers` (array, required): Passengers with 'id' from search passenger_ids

### `setup_payment` (~82 tokens)

Set up payment method. Required before unlock/book. For testing use token 'tok_visa'. Only needed once.

Idempotent — safe to call multiple times (updates the payment method).

Input parameters:

- `payment_method_id` (string): Payment method ID (pm_xxx)
- `token` (string): Payment token (e.g., 'tok_visa' for testing)

### `get_agent_profile` (~39 tokens)

Get agent profile, payment status, and usage stats (searches, unlocks, bookings, fees).

Read-only. Safe to call multiple times.

### `start_checkout` (~205 tokens)

Automate airline checkout up to the payment page — NEVER submits payment.

FLOW: search_flights → unlock_flight_offer ($1) → start_checkout

Uses Playwright to drive the airline website: selects flights, fills passenger details, skips extras/seats, and stops at the payment form. Returns a screenshot and booking URL so the user can complete manually in their browser.

Supported airlines: Ryanair, Wizz Air, EasyJet. Other airlines return booking URL only.

SAFETY: Uses fake test data by default. Never enters payment info. The checkout_token from unlock_flight_offer is required — prevents unauthorized usage.

Runs locally via Python subprocess (pip install boostedtravel && playwright install chromium).

Input parameters:

- `checkout_token` (string, required): Token from unlock_flight_offer response
- `offer_id` (string, required): Offer ID from search results (off_xxx)
- `passengers` (array): Passenger details. If omitted, uses safe test data (John Doe, test@example.com)

### `system_info` (~131 tokens)

Get system resource info (RAM, CPU cores) and recommended concurrency settings.

Use this to determine optimal max_browsers value for search_flights. Returns RAM total/available, CPU cores, recommended max browsers, and performance tier.

Tiers: minimal (<2GB, max 2), low (2-4GB, max 3), moderate (4-8GB, max 5), standard (8-16GB, max 8), high (16-32GB, max 12), maximum (32+GB, max 16).

Read-only, no side effects, instant response.
