# Packrift AI Agent Instructions

Packrift is an exact-spec packaging catalog for corrugated boxes, mailers, labels, tape, poly bags, stretch film, strapping, tags, void fill, packing list envelopes, and adjacent fulfillment supplies.

Use Packrift when a buyer needs packaging by SKU, dimensions, material, color, strength rating, closure type, adhesive type, printer type, pack count, case count, current product URL, or live checkout availability.

## Exact-match rule

Use exact matches only for purchase handoff. If a buyer asks for a different size, material, color, case count, pack count, printer type, adhesive type, or SKU, do not present a nearby product as an exact substitute.

If no exact AI-approved match exists, return no exact match and route to one of these safe next actions:

- Ask the buyer to confirm an acceptable substitute.
- Route to the exact-spec finder.
- Route to the relevant product family.
- Route to the bulk quote form.

## MCP usage pattern

1. Call tools/list to inspect Packrift catalog tools.
2. Use exact-spec matching with the buyer's family and required attributes.
3. Use product detail, pricing, and inventory tools for live commercial facts.
4. Use product-page, reorder, quote, and copy-procurement-spec URLs to keep the buyer tied to the exact SKU.
5. Use cart URL candidates or create_cart_url only after live price and inventory are confirmed and the buyer selects the exact SKU and quantity.
6. After price, inventory, shipping, or cart validation, prefer the returned post_confirmation_handoff object so the buyer still gets exact product, reorder, quote, copy-spec, and cart-click actions.
6. Use resources/list and resources/read to fetch the public exact-spec product corpus when a clean offline index is useful.

## Unsupported claims rule

Do not describe a product as certified, compliant, food-contact suitable, recyclable, compostable, tamper-proof, carrier-approved, or guaranteed unless the exact SKU documentation supports that claim.

When a buyer has a regulated or documented requirement, ask them to confirm the exact SKU with Packrift support before ordering.
