About this agent
Ships in the FieldCamp agent marketplace — because a low-stock list sorted by SKU tells you nothing about which shortage hurts tomorrow.
Every inventory system can tell you what's low. Almost none can tell you what matters: five units of something you use monthly is fine; two units of what tomorrow's three installs each need is an emergency wearing a calm face. The difference is the schedule, and stock systems don't read schedules.
This planner does. When stock dips below threshold, it cross-references what's booked — which jobs consume that part, how soon, whether the warehouse can cover it — and recommends the reorder order by operational risk. The reorder list stops being alphabetical and starts being honest about consequences.

- 3
Ranks the operational risk
assess_riskBlocks-jobs-this-week outranks low-but-idle. Each item gets a why, not just a number.

Writes the reorder recommendation
recommend_reorderWhat to order first, what can ride to the next cycle, and what the warehouse can cover by transfer.
What you get
A reorder list ranked by what would actually block work — with the reasoning attached to every line.
A run, as you’d see it
Agent runs land on a timeline — what fired, what the agent found, and the action waiting for a human. This is that screen.

3 AC jobs scheduled this week
Summary
Two 45/5 capacitors left against three scheduled AC repair visits this week. Warehouse has none. Recommend: priority reorder today — this is the highest-risk shortage in the current list.
Recommends unattended; nothing is ordered. Pairing with purchase-order drafting behind approval is a setup option.
By trade
Same agent, configured to how your vertical actually works.
Seasonal par levels — capacitor risk in July is not capacitor risk in January.
Job-specific parts rank by the appointment that needs them, not the bin count.
Questions, answered
Does it place orders with my supplier?
The template recommends; ordering stays human. If you want drafted purchase orders waiting for a morning tap, that's an approval-gated option we can configure — the agent never spends unattended.
How does it know which jobs use which parts?
From your job types and history in FieldCamp — what your market actually consumes per call type. It sharpens as your data does, and you can hard-code must-stock lists.
We track inventory loosely. Is this still useful?
Yes — it works at the precision you have. Coarse par levels still catch the worst shortages; most shops tighten tracking once the recommendations prove out.
