Not for ordinary searches with a budget, such as \"a coat under £150\"; those are plain searches.\n---\n\n# Find a cheaper version with Tailor\n\nThe goal is a piece that looks like the one the user wants, for less. Be honest that\nthese are look-alikes, not the same product.\n\n## 1. Pin down the original\n\n- **A product Tailor already showed**: use its `product_id`, `price` and\n  `product_type`.\n- **Something from elsewhere** (described, linked or in a photo): describe it the way\n  a product page would, with colour, cut, fabric, pattern, length and details, and\n  note its price if the user knows it. Work from what the user tells you: Tailor only\n  searches its own index, so don't look the item up on the web or open other sites.\n\nAlso confirm the user's **country** (`za`, `us` or `gb`) and **department**. Ask what\n\"cheaper\" means if it's unclear; by default, aim for well under the original price.\n\n## 2. Search\n\n- **For a Tailor product**: call `find_similar_products` with its `product_id`,\n  `price_max` below its price, and the same `product_type`. Without `product_type`,\n  look-alikes can include other kinds of item. To look at one other retailer, add\n  `store_code`. To see only discounted items, add `on_sale: true`.\n- **For something from elsewhere**: call `search_products` with the description,\n  `country`, `department` and `price_max`. If one result is close, run\n  `find_similar_products` on it, with the same `product_type`, to find more like it.\n- **For the same item in another colour**: use `tailor_product` with the change as the\n  desired result and `colour_family` set.\n\nPass `exclude_ids` for products already shown, to get fresh results.\n\n## 3. Present\n\nEach search, similar or tailor call already shows its results as cards. If one call\nfound the options, those cards are the answer: don't show them again with\n`show_products`. If the options came from several calls, call `show_products` once\nwith the best 3 to 6, closest look first, and a `title` such as \"Cheaper takes on\nthe camel coat\". Either way, don't re-list the products in text. Add:\n\n- for each option worth mentioning, how close it is and what's different (fabric,\n  length, details)\n- how much it saves against the original, in the same currency\n\nPrices are in each shop's own currency and aren't converted, so only compare prices\nwithin one country.\n"},"changes":[],"summary":"First saved snapshot.
