Requires the pricewin MCP server. Handles real money: it creates bookings and payment links. Read the confirmation rules below before use.

Booking Assistant

MCP server: pricewin. Orchestrates discover → detail → recommend → book → pay → manage.

What is actually bookable

Source	Can you book it here?
source: "OPENTRAVEL_DIRECT" (has propertyId)	✅ Yes — full booking + payment via create_booking
Booking.com / Agoda / Traveloka	❌ No — comparison only. Hand the user the OTA url

Only OpenTravel direct properties yield the propertyId + roomTypeId that create_booking requires. Never imply an OTA hotel can be reserved through this skill.

Recommendation flow

1. Discover — search_hotels_live(city, checkIn, checkOut, adults, …) → sessionId, then poll poll_search_results(sessionId, nights) every 5s while status is pending/partial (up to 18 polls / 90s)
2. Score — rating × log(reviewCount + 1) — balances quality against credibility. Strong candidates: rating ≥ 8.0 and reviewCount ≥ 100
3. Rank — top 3–5 by score
4. Detail — get_hotel_detail(propertyId, checkIn, checkOut, adults) for OpenTravel picks; get_ota_hotel_detail(hotelName, city, checkIn, checkOut, queryText) for a named OTA hotel (~20–60s)
5. Recommend — filter rooms by guest capacity, then pick best value

Booking link rules (OTA hotels)

• NEVER invent URLs — only use a url the tool returned
• Always name the OTA next to the link; if several have the same room, show all with prices
• Append the user's dates to the raw URL — see pricewin-hotel-search

Booking flow (OpenTravel direct)

1. Get the room first — mandatory

Call get_hotel_detail before booking to obtain roomTypeId, total price, and currency. Do not guess any of the three.

Optionally call get_cancellation_policy(propertyId, ratePlanId, checkInDate) and show the refund terms before taking payment.

2. Ask for all four things in ONE message

In your first request for guest info, ask for all of these together — never split across turns, and always in the user's language:

1. Full name
2. Phone number
3. Email — the confirmation email goes here
4. Payment method

⚠️ Never auto-fill the email from the account/profile. The guest is often not the account owner. It must come from what the user typed in this chat. If it is missing, ask.

Present the three payment methods as equal choices, no default, no recommended order:

• Bank transfer via QR (SePay) → SEPAY
• International card via Polar → POLAR
• PayPal → PAYPAL

If the user already signalled a preference, infer it and skip re-asking:

They said	Method
"scan QR", "quét mã", "chuyển khoản", "bank transfer", "VietQR"	SEPAY
"card", "thẻ", "credit/debit card", "visa", "mastercard"	POLAR
"PayPal"	PAYPAL

If anything is still missing after their reply, ask again for just the missing item(s).

3. Confirm before charging

Summarise back everything — hotel, room type, check-in/check-out, guests, TOTAL price (full amount, not a deposit), guest name, email address (emphasise it — a typo means the confirmation never arrives), phone, payment method — then explicitly ask the user to confirm it is all correct.

4. Only then call create_booking

Required: propertyId, roomTypeId, checkIn, checkOut, adults, guestName, guestPhone, guestEmail, paymentMethod, totalAmount, currency. Also pass queryText (user's original text, verbatim).

Returns a payment link and a confirmationCode (e.g. K7X9M2P4) — surface both.

After booking

User says	Tool
"I paid" / "check my booking"	check_booking_status(confirmationCode)
"the payment link expired"	recreate_payment_link(confirmationCode)
"cancel my booking"	request_cancel_token → then cancel_booking

🚨 Never call create_booking twice for the same stay. An expired payment link is fixed with recreate_payment_link — it reuses the same confirmation code. Calling create_booking again creates a duplicate booking and a duplicate confirmation email.

Cancelling — two steps, by design

1. request_cancel_token(confirmationCode, guestEmail) — email must match the booking's primary guest. This emails the guest a magic link
2. The guest pastes the token back → cancel_booking(confirmationCode, cancelToken, reason) (reason ≥ 3 chars)

You cannot cancel without the guest fetching that token from their inbox. Tell them to check their email rather than retrying step 1.

Security & data handling

This skill has real transaction authority and transmits guest PII (name, phone, email) to PriceWin's hosted MCP server https://mcp.price.win/mcp — that is inherent to making a reservation, and it is why booking is a separate skill from search. It ships no code and makes no network calls of its own.

Card numbers, CVV and bank credentials never pass through the skill or the agent — create_booking returns a payment link and the user pays on the provider's own page. Never ask for card details; refuse if offered.

Confirm the full summary and total price with the user before every create_booking. Full disclosure — operator, exact PII fields per tool, payment boundary, cancellation model — in SECURITY.md.
