What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins in plugins/carsxe/carsxe-codex-plugin/skills/recalls-ymm/SKILL.md and read by Ahel’s review.

When the user asks about recalls or safety issues for a year/make/model and does not have a VIN:

  1. Make an HTTP GET request to the CarsXE Recalls by YMM API:
    GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/recalls-ymm?key={CARSXE_API_KEY}&year={YEAR}&make={MAKE}&model={MODEL}&source=codex_plugin
    
    year must be a 4-digit model year between 1900 and the current model year plus one. If year, make, or model are missing, ask for them before calling the API.
  2. Present recall details:
    • Total recall_count and has_recalls
    • For each recall: NHTSA campaign number, manufacturer, component, summary, consequence, remedy, report date
    • Highlight park_it, park_outside, or over-the-air remedy flags
  3. If no recalls exist, clearly confirm the model line has no safety recalls.
  4. Emphasize this is a model-line result, not a specific vehicle. If they later provide a VIN, use the vehicle-recalls skill (/v1/recalls) instead. For many VINs, use recalls-batch.
  5. If the API key is missing, tell the user to set the CARSXE_API_KEY environment variable (see AGENTS.md).
