Build and modify orders in Claude Desktop

The `start_order` tool lets your agent initiate new bookings directly inside your Claude Desktop chat window. You can pass member details and order items as JSON objects to build a reservation from scratch, then append extra items using `add_to_order` without switching tabs. This saves you from digging through the BookingLive web portal when a customer calls. Claude Desktop handles the back-and-forth using this MCP Server, updating parameters with `update_order_param` and finalizing the checkout with `complete_order` right in your sidebar.

Check BookingLive availability with this MCP Server

The `get_product_availability` and `get_resource_availability` tools let Claude Desktop inspect open slots and staff resources on the fly. Your agent queries live dates directly, pulling real-time schedules to see if a slot is open before you book a client. When a customer asks for a specific date range, Claude Desktop calls `get_events_by_product_ids` to find matching slots. You get instant answers in your chat window instead of manually running reports on the BookingLive dashboard.

Handle cancellations and refunds in Claude Desktop

The `cancel_order` and `abort_order` tools give Claude Desktop the power to stop pending orders and wipe out stuck reservations. If a client emails to cancel, you paste their request into Claude, and your agent kills the order immediately. You can also use `send_email_to_customers` to notify them of the change. Claude Desktop pulls the exact HTML layout using `get_message_content` so you know exactly what your client receives.
