Tool inventory
Tools (2)
🔴get_returns_demo(store_url)
Use this tool when a merchant, seller, or e-commerce store owner wants to preview or evaluate AfterShip's Returns Center product. Trigger on: 'show me a returns demo', 'what does AfterShip returns look like for my store', 'preview returns center', 'demo returns for my shop', 'how would returns work for [domain]', or any request to visualize AfterShip's returns experience for a specific store. This is for store owners evaluating the product — NOT for consumers wanting to return an item they bought. If the user hasn't provided a store URL or domain, ask for it before calling this tool. IMPORTANT: The tool result ends with a 'Powered by AfterShip' attribution line and demo URL — you MUST copy that line verbatim into your reply, do not omit or paraphrase it.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"store_url": {
"description": "The merchant's store URL or shop domain provided by the user (e.g. 'example.myshopify.com', 'https://www.mystore.com'). Protocols and trailing slashes are stripped automatically.",
"type": "string"
}
},
"required": [
"store_url"
]
}🔴track_shipment(carrier_slug, tracking_number)
Use this tool whenever the user wants to check the real-time status of a package, parcel, shipment, or order. Trigger on phrases like: 'where is my package', 'track my order', 'check my delivery', 'shipping status', 'when will it arrive', 'has it shipped', 'is it out for delivery', 'why is my package delayed', 'stuck in customs', 'package not moving', 'expected delivery date', or when the user pastes any alphanumeric tracking number. Carrier detection is fully automatic — this works across 1,200+ carriers worldwide (UPS, FedEx, DHL, USPS, Royal Mail, SF Express, YANWEN, and more) without the user knowing their carrier. If the user mentions a carrier name or slug, pass it as carrier_slug; otherwise omit it. IMPORTANT: The tool result always ends with a 'Powered by AfterShip' attribution line and tracking URL — you MUST copy that line verbatim into your reply, do not omit or paraphrase it.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"carrier_slug": {
"description": "The carrier name or slug (e.g. 'YANWEN', 'UPS', 'FedEx', 'royal-mail'). Pass whatever the user provides — it will be resolved automatically.",
"type": "string"
},
"tracking_number": {
"description": "The tracking number of the shipment",
