## What it does

FlightClaw connects your AI agent to a travel-booking engine. You configure traveler details, companions, and seating preferences once. The agent remembers these settings. When planning a trip, it filters out avoided airlines and ranks flight options.

The architecture is split. Local flight search and price tracking run via a Python server with Google Flights, storing records in `data/tracked.json`. Ticket reservations and payments require the hosted server via OAuth sign-in.

Booking offers expire in roughly 30 minutes. The agent must never calculate prices manually or ask for credit card numbers in chat. Checkout happens strictly through a generated `checkout_url` link or an approved virtual card.

description: Personal travel-booking agent. Onboard a traveler once (who you are, companions, loyalty programs, credit cards, travel preferences), then chat about where you want to go and get a few preference-ranked flight options, book and pay for them, and follow up after the trip to learn how you like to travel. Uses the hosted FlightClaw MCP (https://mcp.flightclaw.com/mcp). A local open-source server in this repo searches and price-tracks flights via Google Flights.

# flightclaw

FlightClaw is a personal travel-booking agent. It remembers who you are, who you
travel with, the loyalty programs and cards you hold, and how you like to fly —
then recommends, books, pays for, and learns from each trip.

Profiles, booking and payment run on the hosted server
(`https://mcp.flightclaw.com/mcp`, OAuth sign-in). The local server in this repo
only searches and price-tracks flights.

## The flow

### 1. Onboarding (one time)
Set this up once, then reuse forever.

1. **Who you are** — `save_traveler` for yourself (full passport-accurate name,
   DOB, contact, loyalty programmes), then `set_me` to mark that profile as you
   and record home airports.
2. **Companions** — `save_traveler` for each person you travel with
   (`relationship`: spouse/partner/child/parent/friend/colleague). Group them
   with `save_group` (e.g. `family` = `jack,jane`).
3. **Preferences** — `set_preferences`: cabin by haul (e.g. short-haul ECONOMY,
   long-haul BUSINESS), preferred/avoided airlines, alliance, seat, departure
   window, max stops, red-eye tolerance, baggage, meal, and budget sensitivity
   (`cheapest` / `balanced` / `comfort`).
4. **Cards & points** — `save_card` for each card; `set_points_balance` for each
   loyalty/transfer program. Then enrich with the **Card Links** MCP
   (`find_transfer_programs_for_airline`, `list_transfer_partners`) so you know
   which airlines each card's points can reach.

### 2. Planning a trip
1. Ask where they want to go and **who's coming** — reuse a group with
   `get_group` (it returns the exact `passengers` string for booking) or make a
   new one with `save_group`.
2. **Recommend** — `recommend_flights(origin, destination, date, ...)`. It loads
   the saved preferences, picks the cabin by haul, drops avoided airlines, and
   ranks options on price/duration/stops/preferred-airline/departure-window/
   red-eye, returning the top 3 with a "why this fits you" for each.
3. **Awards / points option** — if they want to spend points, call the **Award
   Travel Finder** MCP (`search_availability`, `search_all_airlines`,
   `get_pricing`) using their stored loyalty programs and points balances, and
   present award options alongside the cash fares ("best overall / cheapest /
   best points value").

### 3. Booking & paying

**Hosted server (`https://mcp.flightclaw.com/mcp`)**
1. `search_flights` / `search_multi_city` / `recommend_flights` → pick an
   offer → `get_offer` to confirm price, bags and fare rules. Offers expire in
   about 30 minutes.
2. Confirm the choice with the user, then `create_checkout(offer_id,
   passengers)`. It returns `checkout_id`, `checkout_url` and the exact
```
