Use this when a shopper wants to know whether they already follow a specific store on Refermate. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question. Say matches are shown or ready, group them as with or without Refermate rewards, name buttons exactly as shown, and call this the Refermate app. Do not comment on how the answer appears or works.
get_store_follow_status
Check if a store allows referral link sharing for commission. Use for general referral questions that do not ask ChatGPT to start sign-in. If the user explicitly asks ChatGPT to sign in and complete the account-specific check, use Check Signed-In Referral Permission instead. If the user needs to apply, direct them to the returned referral program URL. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question. Say matches are shown or ready, group them as with or without Refermate rewards, name buttons exactly as shown, and call this the Refermate app. Do not comment on how the answer appears or works.
check_referral_permission
Use this when a shopper wants to know whether a specific product is saved or has Price Watch enabled. Returns server-owned Saved and Watching state plus the visible Price Watch allowance. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question. Say matches are shown or ready, group them as with or without Refermate rewards, name buttons exactly as shown, and call this the Refermate app. Do not comment on how the answer appears or works.
get_product_relationship
Use when the shopper explicitly asks ChatGPT to sign in and check whether they can refer a named store, or asks to repeat the check after connecting. This completes the referral check as part of sign-in. For a general referral question that does not ask to sign in, use the regular referral permission check. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question. Say matches are shown or ready, group them as with or without Refermate rewards, name buttons exactly as shown, and call this the Refermate app. Do not comment on how the answer appears or works.
check_referral_permission_with_account
Use this when shoppers give a product image or product-page URL and ask where else to buy it, compare stores, or find exact, same, or similar products. Treat these as cross-store unless they ask for one store. A URL alone is not enough; ask what help they want. Use an attached product image directly and include useful user-provided product details as context. Request a product page for store home/category links, a valid link if malformed, or a product image or product link if missing. Use plausible user-supplied product-page URLs from unsupported stores for an honest result. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question. Say matches are shown or ready, group them as with or without Refermate rewards, name buttons exactly as shown, and call this the Refermate app. Do not comment on how the answer appears or works.
discover_product_alternatives
Use this when a shopper asks which online stores sell a product type, wants stores in a category, asks for store recommendations, or wants stores similar to a named store. Results include description, category, and price-tier context for explaining why each store matches. For one named store's current cash back or Refermate availability, use online store lookup. This returns stores, not individual product listings or receipt-upload offers. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question. Say matches are shown or ready, group them as with or without Refermate rewards, name buttons exactly as shown, and call this the Refermate app. Do not comment on how the answer appears or works.
find_stores_by_category
Use this when a shopper asks for specific products, categories, or cash-back offers earned by uploading an in-store receipt, optionally at a named physical retailer. This searches Magic Receipts offers. For a yes-or-no participation check about one retailer, use exact in-store merchant lookup. To browse participating retailers instead of offers, use in-store retailer search. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question.

get_store_coupons
Use this for a yes-or-no check of whether one specific physical retailer participates in Refermate Magic Receipts and accepts receipt uploads for in-store cash back. Do not use it to browse retailer categories or search for products and offers. If the result is ambiguous, ask which candidate retailer the shopper means before answering yes or no. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question. Say matches are shown or ready, group them as with or without Refermate rewards, name buttons exactly as shown, and call this the Refermate app. Do not comment on how the answer appears or works.
lookup_in_store_merchant
Create a short-lived reward link only after the user selects a product with Refermate rewards in the Refermate card. Use only for that selected product; do not invoke it from conversation planning or proactively. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question.

search_in_store_retailers
Search beyond partner-store results. Group products only by rewardState: available means With Refermate rewards; unavailable means Without Refermate rewards. Show the supplied rewardLabel for every available product and never for an unavailable product. Never infer rewards from links, store ID, merchant name, or any other field. Referral commission is separate and must follow the returned referral permission. Always reproduce the With Refermate rewards and Without Refermate rewards headings in that order, even when one is empty; say None found under an empty heading. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next. After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question.

search_shopify_catalog

For product-page URLs plus where-else, cross-store, exact, same, or similar intent, use product alternatives unless results must stay in that store. A store home/category link needs a product page for cross-store comparison. Use simple, everyday shopping language.

For store recommendations or stores in a product category, use category discovery. For receipt-upload participation at a physical retailer, use exact in-store merchant lookup.

search_stores
Use this when the shopper explicitly asks to enable or disable Price Watch for a reward-supported product. Enabling saves the product first; disabling keeps it saved.

After Refermate responds, repeat its short customer-ready sentence and answer only the shopper's direct question.

Show Refermate account choices when the user asks how accounts work, how to get started, or how an account helps save rewards. When the result says the user is already signed in, say that no sign-in or account-creation step is needed; do not offer Sign In or Create Account. When the user explicitly asks ChatGPT to start sign-in, create an account, or continue an account-required action, use the protected sign-in action instead. Do not use for account deletion, data erasure, support, settings, or other account-management requests. Use simple, everyday shopping language. Talk only about deals, rewards, whether the shopper is signed in, and what they can do next.
