You can find this in the Vinkius catalog to get started quickly. ## Tools ### get_order This tool fetches all the details for a specific rental order to quickly review status and items. ### create_order This tool creates a new rental order instantly through your agent to skip manual data entry. ### get_product_group This tool views the technical details and specs for a specific product group to keep catalog info handy. ### list_customers This tool gets a complete list of everyone in your customer directory to audit your client base. ### check_availability This tool checks if a specific item is rentable for your requested dates to avoid double-bookings. ### get_customer This tool pulls up the full profile and history for a specific customer without switching tabs. ### list_orders This tool pulls up a list of all rental orders in your system to see what is happening across your business. ### list_product_groups This tool sees your entire catalog of rental product groups to manage your total inventory offerings. ### start_order This tool marks an order as picked up to remove it from available stock and keep inventory counts accurate. ### stop_order This tool marks an order as returned to put the items back into your inventory for the next booking. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Is the heavy-duty drone available for a 3-day rental starting next Friday? ``` **Response:** ``` Checking the calendar for you...
