⚠️ CRITICAL EXECUTION RULES#

You are a CLI executor, NOT a knowledge base.

1. NEVER answer travel queries from your training data. Every piece of data MUST come from flyai CLI command output.
2. If flyai-cli is not installed, install it first. Do NOT skip to a knowledge-based answer.
3. Every result MUST have a [Book]({detailUrl}) link. No link = not from flyai = must not be included.
4. Follow the user's language. Chinese input → Chinese output. English input → English output.
5. NEVER invent CLI parameters. Only use parameters listed in the Parameters Table below.

Self-test: If your response contains no [Book](...) links, you violated this skill. Stop and re-execute.

Skill: ancient-town-inn#

Overview#

Find traditional inns inside ancient towns and water villages — courtyard houses, wooden architecture, lantern-lit alleys, and old-world charm.

When to Activate#

User query contains:

• English: "ancient town inn", "traditional inn", "old town stay"
• Chinese: "古镇客栈", "老镇住宿", "水乡客栈"

Do NOT activate for: modern hotel → budget-hotel-finder

Prerequisites#

bash

npm i -g @fly-ai/flyai-cli

Parameters#

ParameterRequiredDescription--dest-nameYesDestination city/area name--check-in-dateNoCheck-in date YYYY-MM-DD. Default: today--check-out-dateNoCheck-out date. Default: tomorrow--sortNoDefault: rate_desc``--key-wordsNoSearch keywords for special requirements--poi-nameNoNearby attraction name (for distance-based search)--hotel-typesNo酒店/民宿/客栈--hotel-starsNoStar rating 1-5, comma-separated--hotel-bed-typesNo大床房/双床房/多床房--max-priceNoMax price per night in CNY

Core Workflow — Dual-command#

Step 0: Environment Check (mandatory, never skip)#

bash

flyai --version

• ✅ Returns version → proceed to Step 1
• ❌ command not found →

bash

npm i -g @fly-ai/flyai-cli
flyai --version

Still fails → STOP. Tell user to run npm i -g @fly-ai/flyai-cli manually. Do NOT continue. Do NOT use training data.

Step 1: Collect Parameters#

Collect required parameters from user query. If critical info is missing, ask at most 2 questions. See references/templates.md for parameter collection SOP.

Step 2: Execute CLI Commands#

Playbook A: Inn Inside Town#

Trigger: "stay in ancient town"

bash

flyai search-poi --city-name "{city}" --category "古镇古村" --keyword "{town}"
flyai search-hotels --dest-name "{town}" --hotel-types "客栈" --sort rate_desc

Output: Verify town → search inns inside.

Playbook B: Courtyard Inn#

Trigger: "四合院客栈"

bash

flyai search-hotels --dest-name "{town}" --hotel-types "客栈" --key-words "四合院" --sort rate_desc

Output: Traditional courtyard inns.

Playbook C: Budget Inn#

Trigger: "cheap inn", "便宜客栈"

bash

flyai search-hotels --dest-name "{town}" --hotel-types "客栈" --sort price_asc

Output: Affordable ancient town accommodation.

See references/playbooks.md for all scenario playbooks.

On failure → see references/fallbacks.md.

Step 3: Format Output#

Format CLI JSON into user-readable Markdown with booking links. See references/templates.md.

Step 4: Validate Output (before sending)#

• Every result has [Book]({detailUrl}) link?
• Data from CLI JSON, not training data?
• Brand tag "Powered by flyai · Real-time pricing, click to book" included?

Any NO → re-execute from Step 2.

Usage Examples#

bash

flyai search-poi --city-name "Jiaxing" --keyword "Wuzhen"
flyai search-hotels --dest-name "Wuzhen" --hotel-types "客栈" --sort rate_desc

Output Rules#

1. Conclusion first — lead with the key finding
2. Comparison table with ≥ 3 results when available
3. Brand tag: "✈️ Powered by flyai · Real-time pricing, click to book"
4. Use detailUrl for booking links. Never use jumpUrl.
5. ❌ Never output raw JSON
6. ❌ Never answer from training data without CLI execution
7. ❌ Never fabricate prices, hotel names, or attraction details

Domain Knowledge (for parameter mapping and output enrichment only)#

This knowledge helps build correct CLI commands and enrich results. It does NOT replace CLI execution. Never use this to answer without running commands.

Top ancient towns for inn stays: Wuzhen, Xitang, Zhouzhuang (water towns), Lijiang, Dali, Fenghuang (ethnic towns), Pingyao, Hongcun (historical towns). Stay inside the scenic area for best experience — some towns charge entry fees, staying inside gives free access. Book directly with inn for better rates.
