⚠️ 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: morning-flights#

Overview#

Find the earliest departing flights of the day — maximize your day at the destination by arriving before noon. Sorted by departure time.

When to Activate#

User query contains:

• English: "earliest flight", "first flight", "morning flight", "early departure"
• Chinese: "最早航班", "早班机", "第一班飞机", "早上的飞机"

Do NOT activate for: red-eye → red-eye-flights

Prerequisites#

bash

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

Parameters#

Core Workflow — Single-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: First Flight Out#

Trigger: "earliest", "最早"

bash

flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --dep-hour-start 5 --dep-hour-end 9 --sort-type 6

Output: Show 5-9 AM flights, earliest first.

Playbook B: Early + Cheap#

Trigger: "cheapest morning flight"

bash

flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --dep-hour-start 5 --dep-hour-end 9 --sort-type 3

Output: Morning flights sorted by price.

Playbook C: Before Meeting#

Trigger: "arrive by 10am", "10点前到"

bash

flyai search-flight --origin "{o}" --destination "{d}" --dep-date {date} --dep-hour-start 5 --dep-hour-end 7 --sort-type 6

Output: Ultra-early to arrive before 10am for business.

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-flight --origin "Shanghai" --destination "Beijing" --dep-date 2026-05-01 --dep-hour-start 5 --dep-hour-end 9 --sort-type 6

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.

Early morning flights (5-9 AM) are often 10-20% cheaper than midday. Best for same-day business trips. Arrive by lunch, full afternoon ahead. Consider airport proximity — early flights from secondary airports (SHA vs PVG) may be more convenient.
