Check an order with your tool

A skill recipe that looks up an order with your own HTTP tool, tells the customer its status and hands late orders to your staff.

This recipe answers "where is my order" from your own order system.

When to use: the customer asks where their order is. Needs an HTTP tool that looks up orders, here called "Order lookup".

Steps

  1. Ask: the order code.
  2. Tool: Order lookup, how: "with the order code".
  3. If the order is late or lost:
    1. Say: "Sorry for the wait, I'm passing this to our team right now."
    2. Tool: Hand off to staff.
  4. Else:
    1. Tell: the status and the expected delivery date.

Guardrail: "Never make up a delivery date. Only use what the tool returns."

Ask your assistant

Create a skill "Order status" for when a customer asks where their order is. Ask for the order code, then call my Order lookup tool with it. If the order is late or lost, say sorry and hand off to staff. Otherwise tell them the status and delivery date.
