Can I check if a specific item is available for a date range?

Yes. Use `check_item_availability` with the Item ID, start date, and end date (YYYY-MM-DD format) to verify if the item is free for that period. Use `list_availability` for a complete overview of all items and their current availability status.

Can I track overdue rentals that haven't been returned?

Yes. The `list_overdue_hires` tool retrieves all rentals past their return date with customer info, item details, and days overdue. Use `list_hires_by_status` with 'overdue' status for the same result, or filter by 'active', 'returned', or 'pending'.

Can I create a new rental booking through the AI agent?

Yes. Use `create_hire` with a JSON payload containing customer ID, item IDs, start date, end date, and any special instructions. Use `list_items` to browse available equipment and `list_customers` to find the customer. Use `create_customer` to add a new customer if needed.
