⚠️ 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 command 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.

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

Skill: car-rental-search

Overview

Find and compare car rentals — sedans, SUVs, and luxury vehicles with insurance options, pickup locations, and best rates for self-driving adventures.

When to Activate

User query contains:

• English: "rent a car", "car rental", "hire car", "self-drive"
• Chinese: "租车", "自驾", "租车服务"

Do NOT activate for: road trip → road-trip-planner

Prerequisites

npm i -g @fly-ai/flyai-cli

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
--query	Yes	Natural language query string

Core Workflow — Single-command

Step 0: Environment Check (mandatory, never skip)

flyai --version

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

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 for parameter collection SOP.

Step 2: Execute CLI Commands

Playbook A: City Rental

Trigger: "rent a car in {city}"

flyai keyword-search --query "租车 {city}"

Output: Car rental in city.

Playbook B: Airport Rental

Trigger: "car rental at airport"

flyai keyword-search --query "机场租车 {city}"

Output: Airport pickup car rental.

Playbook C: SUV Rental

Trigger: "rent SUV"

flyai keyword-search --query "SUV租车 {city}"

Output: SUV for road trips.

See references/playbooks.md for all scenario playbooks.

On failure → see references/fallbacks.md.

Step 3: Format Output

Format CLI JSON into user-readable Markdown with booking links. See 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?

Any NO → re-execute from Step 2.

Usage Examples

flyai keyword-search --query "租车 成都"

Output Rules

1. Conclusion first — lead with the key finding
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, hotel names, or attraction 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.

Car rental tips: book 1-2 weeks ahead for best rates. International: need international driving permit (IDP) + passport + credit card. China: Chinese driving license required (international license not accepted). Insurance: always get full coverage. Check: fuel policy (full-to-full is best), mileage limits, cross-border restrictions.
