RollingGo Flight CLI

When to Use

✅ Use this skill when:

• Airport Discovery: User needs to find airport codes or verify city/airport names before booking (e.g., "What's the airport code for Hangzhou?").
• Flight Search: User wants to find available flights between two destinations with specific dates, cabin class, or passenger count.
• One-way or Round-trip: User wants to search one-way or round-trip flights with structured filters.
• Multi-step Planning: User provides a natural language travel request and needs structured flight results to continue planning.

❌ Don't use this skill when:

• User asks about hotel booking, trains, transfers, or car rentals.
• User wants real-time seat selection or checkout — this skill returns search results only.

API Key

Resolution order: --api-key flag → ROLLINGGO_API_KEY env var.

Runtime

Default to references/rollinggo-flight-npx.md; switch to references/rollinggo-flight-uvx.md if the user specifies uv/uvx/Python. For environments without Node.js or Python, use the standalone binary (see each reference file's Install section). For step-by-step scenarios and tutorials, see references/flight-workflows.md. For API key persistence see references/claw-host-env.md.

Version Freshness (Always Latest)

Default policy for this skill: use the newest release on every run.

• npm/npx: npx --yes rollinggo-flight@latest ...
• uvx: uvx --refresh --from rollinggo-flight@latest rollinggo-flight ...

Primary Workflow

Run these steps in order unless the user is already at a later step.

1. Clarify: origin city/airport, destination city/airport, departure date, trip type (ONE_WAY / ROUND_TRIP), return date (if round-trip), passenger count, cabin class
2. If city/airport codes are unclear → run search-airports first to resolve IATA codes
3. Run search-flights with resolved codes and parameters
4. If no results → loosen filters (see Filter Loosening below)

Commands Quick Reference

# Resolve airport/city codes
rollinggo-flight search-airports --api-key \x3Ckey> --keyword "Hangzhou"

# Search flights (minimum required flags)
rollinggo-flight search-flights \
  --api-key \x3Ckey> \
  --from-city \x3Ccode> \
  --to-city \x3Ccode> \
  --from-date YYYY-MM-DD \
  --trip-type ONE_WAY \
  --adult-number 1 \
  --child-number 0 \
  --cabin-grade ECONOMY

Key Rules

• --trip-type must be exactly ONE_WAY or ROUND_TRIP
• --ret-date is required when --trip-type is ROUND_TRIP
• --cabin-grade must be one of: ECONOMY, PREMIUM_ECONOMY, BUSINESS, FIRST
• Use either --from-city or --from-airport (not both); same for destination
• --from-city / --to-city accepts city codes (e.g. BJS, SHA); --from-airport / --to-airport accepts IATA airport codes (e.g. PEK, PVG)
• --adult-number must be ≥ 1; --child-number must be ≥ 0
• Dates must use YYYY-MM-DD format

Output

• stdout → result payload (JSON by default)
• stderr → errors only
• Exit 0 success · 1 HTTP/network failure · 2 CLI validation failure

Filter Loosening (when no results)

Try in order: try alternative airports in the same city → try adjacent dates → try different cabin grade → try city code instead of airport code
