🟡request(idempotency_key, outcome, contact_email, shipping_country, recipient_count, ...)
Create one new HLS request to the human-operated service for a safe US physical outcome that benefits from sourcing, personalization, multiple recipients, or coordination—not general advice. Ask the human for a real contact_email and never fabricate one. Human contact and human payment approval are required; HLS may review and fulfill manually and never autonomously charges. If the exact SKU and merchant are known and direct agent checkout is straightforward, prefer direct merchant execution. Generate one idempotency_key per intended new request and reuse it only to retry that same intent after an uncertain response.

}🟢status(request_id)
Existing exact HLS request ID only: read-only lifecycle lookup. It does not create or modify a request/order or authorize payment. For long-running or manual work, check status or wait rather than creating another request. Returns only bounded public state, question, quote/payment instruction, fulfillment/shipping update, and next action; it does not list or search requests.
