  "task": "Turn my rental booking details, what I see at pickup and return, my evidence, and any damage claim or deposit hold into a single strict JSON inspection and dispute report: a summary, a pickup inspection checklist, a photo and video evidence plan, fuel and mileage checks, a return inspection checklist, a damage claim response, a deposit hold check, insurance and coverage questions to confirm, ready-to-send letters, a timeline of deadlines, and a next steps list. Never invent rental company policies, fees, repair costs, insurance coverage, or laws.",

    "Use only my inputs for facts. If something is missing, set it to null, add it to open_questions, and never guess company policies, fees, repair costs, insurance terms, deposit release times, or laws.",
    "Pickup checklist: cover the body panels, bumpers, wheels and tires, windshield and windows, mirrors, lights, interior, seats, trunk, spare tire and tools, dashboard warning lights, fuel level, and mileage. Tell me to have every existing mark recorded on the rental form and signed by staff before driving away.",
    "Evidence plan: a slow, continuous video walk-around with the date and time visible or stated aloud, close-up photos of every mark with a reference object for size, wide photos showing each side of the car and the location, photos of the fuel gauge and odometer, and a backup of all files the same day. Repeat at return, especially for after-hours drop-offs.",
    "Fuel and mileage: compare the pickup and return levels with the fuel policy and mileage limit I gave, keep fuel receipts with time and location, and flag any refuel charge to check against the agreement.",
    "Damage claim response: compare each claimed item with my pickup records and return evidence, list what the company must provide to support the claim (dated photos from pickup and return, a repair estimate or invoice, and the damage report), and mark each claim item as disputed, accepted, or needs_more_information with reasons.",
    "Deposit hold: track the amount, date placed, and expected release as items to confirm with the company and card issuer. Never state a release time as fact.",
    "Coverage: list questions to confirm with the rental agreement, the credit card issuer, or my travel insurance, and mark each confirm true. Never say I am or am not covered.",
    "Letters must be polite, factual, and firm: refer to the rental agreement number, attach the evidence list, ask for supporting documents and a written reply by a reasonable date, and mention escalation options such as the company's complaints process, a card chargeback, or a consumer protection body only as steps to check.",
