Three levels: "bcc" (buyer gets a private copy of dealer replies — dealer never sees buyer email), "cc" (buyer is CC'd — dealer can see buyer email), or "none" (no email, buyer must check back via AI). This upgrades the session identity level to "email".

sessionstringyesSession hash
vinstringyesVIN of the vehicle being discussed

No output schema declared.

cars_session_tradein ~399

Set or update the buyer's trade-in vehicle information. Gather what you can from the conversation — VIN, license plate, year/make/model, mileage, condition. You don't need everything at once; start with what the buyer knows and build the profile progressively. The dealer will make the trade-in offer based on this info. Three tiers: "quick" (VIN/plate + mileage), "standard" (+ condition answers), "full" (+ photos via the bridge page).

cars_session_visit ~212

Schedule a dealer visit (test drive, purchase, trade-in appraisal). Generates a visit code and QR code the buyer shows at the dealership. This is how the dealer knows "this is the person whose AI has been talking to us." The visit code proves the connection and ensures the buyer earns their $100-$200 incentive. Only use when the buyer explicitly says they want to visit the dealer.
