travel-brief

travel-brief is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mtnrabi/travel-agent-skills. It costs 305 tokens per session (2,354 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A travel-brief generator that reruns flight and hotel searches and turns the results into a client-ready summary. It starts with a recommendation, then shows comparison tables, price context, booking links, and the search time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a concise flight or hotel shortlist with prices, travel details, recommendations, booking links, and a current timestamp.
Why use it?
It turns raw travel-search results into a consistent brief that is easier to send to someone else. The price verdict is based on the search result's low, typical, or high classification and comparison band.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

travel-brief scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Travel Brief

Overview

This skill is the presentation layer: it re-runs the search itself under one fresh timestamp — rather than reformatting numbers quoted earlier in the conversation — and lays the results out the way a human travel agent would send them to a client: recommendation first, then a comparison table, then the price verdict, then the links, then the timestamp. Use travel-data-api for auth, base URL, and endpoint details, and prefer the hosted MCP tools when a client is configured. Both trip types carry buy_link, price_range_in_relation_to_other_periods, price_insights_low, and price_insights_high. The rest of the table is built from different keys per trip type: one-way items give price / price_as_number, airline, stops, duration, departure_description, and arrival_description; round-trip items give total_price / total_price_as_number, total_stops, total_duration_seconds, and per-leg fields such as departure_flight_airline, departure_flight_stops, departure_flight_duration, departure_flight_departure_description, and their return_flight_* counterparts. Hotel shortlist items from POST /search give name, price_string, price, review_score, review_count, room_type, location, image_url, and link; POST /hotel_by_name returns those for a single property plus available and nights.

Workflow

  1. Refetch, never reformat old data. If the results are more than a few minutes old, or came from an earlier message, run the search again. A brief is a document someone will act on, so it must carry a fresh fetch and the moment it happened.
  2. Stamp the fetch time before you call, in UTC, and carry that one timestamp through the whole brief.
  3. Pick the recommendation yourself. Choose one option and say why in one sentence — cheapest, shortest, non-stop, best value against the historical band. A list with no pick is not a brief.
  4. Build the comparison table from at most 3–5 options, sorted client-side on price_as_number or total_price_as_number.
  5. Read the verdict off the recommended item: price_range_in_relation_to_other_periods plus the price_insights_lowprice_insights_high band, and put it in its own line.
  6. Close with the links, the checked-at line, and the non-affiliation line.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
