About this skill
Problem
Many travel-guide tools dump a generic PDF in one pass: stacked attractions, vague budgets, and day splits that ignore real constraints. For an engineer, the missing part is structured input and validation: party age mix, budget tier, dietary restrictions, arrival/departure time, and transport preference all change route feasibility. This skill turns guide generation into a reviewable, interactive workflow instead of a single-shot prompt.
How it works
The core is a five-stage loop: profile capture, attraction selection, map generation, map confirmation, and PDF delivery. The profile stage uses AskUserQuestion to collect destination, dates, party size and ages, budget, trip type, food restrictions, transport preference, hotel/dining needs, and arrival/departure windows, then repeats the profile card for confirmation. The attraction stage uses WebSearch to gather tickets, booking rules, opening hours, and anti-marketing signals, then presents candidates with recommendation, caveat, and reason before user selection; user-named stops are kept and flagged with effort risk. The route stage writes trip_data.json, and map output falls back by priority: Tencent Map JSAPI real basemap, geo_layout geographic topology sketch, or plain topology card. The PDF stage renders through build_guide.py and validates pages, Chinese text, and images with pypdf; external delivery masks names, addresses, family relations, and other sensitive fields by default.
Fit and caveats
Best for destination plus days plus a deliverable itinerary, not lightweight questions like “is it worth it” or “how many days are enough”. Real geographic basemaps require a Tencent Map key; without it, the skill emits a schematic. Spot photos must come from public sources and respect copyright and privacy, and failed downloads degrade to text. The value is in structured constraints, explainable recommendations, and delivery self-checks, not in skipping fact verification.
Use Cases
- Collect family constraints, budget, and food restrictions for a five-day Sichuan trip, then output reasoned attraction picks and a route map.
- Given destination, days, and must-go stops, separate overhyped trap spots from realistic candidates that fit the itinerary and explain why each fits.
- Adjust attraction order, numbering, or add/remove stops before the map is confirmed, preventing unconfirmed PDF delivery with updated trip data.
- Turn multi-person travel constraints, budget tiers, and arrival/departure windows into a reviewable profile card and route overview for user confirmation.
Best For
- Product manager planning a family Sichuan trip who needs child and elder pace, budget, and arrival time reflected in a reviewable route.
- Travel consultant preparing a child-friendly summer itinerary who needs attraction filtering by stamina and explained caveats.
- Technical writer producing a weekend city guide who needs local map sketches and a shareable illustrated PDF.
- Community operator publishing sanitized guides who needs names, addresses, and budget fields masked by default.
