## Use Cases

### Pausing a subscription for a customer
A customer wants to pause their service for a month. The agent uses pause_subscription to stop the billing cycle without the support rep opening a new browser tab.

### Launching a new pricing tier
A product manager needs to launch a new Pro tier. The agent uses create_plan and mark_plan_active to make the new pricing live immediately.

### Auditing outstanding payments
A finance lead needs to audit all outstanding payments. The agent uses list_payments and list_invoices to generate a summary of what's still owed.

### Applying a promotional discount
A client wants to use a discount code. The agent uses associate_coupon to apply the promotion to their current subscription.
