Tips

• The agent automatically determines which tools to use based on your natural language query
• For reservation-specific questions, use --reservation <id> for best context
• For property-specific questions, use --listing <id>
• The agent remembers conversation context in chat mode
• Complex operations (cancellations, charges, lock changes) will ask for confirmation before executing
