description

TEST/DEMO skill — generates a multi-truck / multi-option heavy haul freight quote PDF using fictional brokerage info (Apex Transit LLC, MC #123456) so the workflow can be recorded for social media (YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter, Skool) without exposing real Finemark or customer details. Demonstrates the Option 1 (separate trucks) vs Option 2 (combined oversize) pricing layout, heavy haul/superload terminology, escort and permit callouts, and "QUOTED RATES: $X / $Y" total format. Trigger phrases: "test multi-truck quote", "demo multi-truck quote", "demo heavy haul quote", "test option quote", "show me the option quote demo", "build a multi-truck demo", "fake multi-truck quote", "demo the option layout", "sandbox multi-truck", "test the multi-truck quoter", "demo the heavy haul format", "build a heavy haul demo for social", or any time a multi-truck heavy haul quote is needed for recording, screenshots, or skill testing. Always produces a ready-to-download PDF stamped with TEST/DEMO notices throughout. Never use for real customers — use finemark-rfq for live work.

Test Multi-Truck Quote — Heavy Haul Option Pricing Generator (DEMO MODE)

Generates a fully formatted multi-truck / multi-option freight quote PDF using Apex Transit LLC (fictional brokerage, MC #123456) in place of any real company details. Built specifically for the "Option 1 vs Option 2" heavy haul scenario — splitting one disassembled machine across multiple trucks with a combined-oversize alternative.

Identical layout and logic to the live multi-truck quote workflow — safe for social media demos, YouTube recordings, LinkedIn screenshots, and skill development.

Two Trigger Modes

Mode A — "Just run the demo"

If the user says any of: "run the demo", "show me the multi-truck demo", "build the heavy haul demo", "just run it", or doesn't provide any specific load details — use the built-in default scenario below. This is the fastest path for recording video content.

Mode B — "Demo this specific load"

If the user provides specific load details (origin, destination, commodity, weights, dimensions, prices), use those instead of the defaults. Still uses Apex Transit branding and TEST/DEMO stamps.

Step 1 — Build Quote Number

Format: ATQ-YYYY-MMDD Use today's date. If a second quote on the same day, append a letter: ATQ-2026-0505B

Step 2 — Run the PDF Generator

The generator is bundled at scripts/generate_quote.py. Copy it to /home/claude/ before running (skill directory is read-only):

cp /mnt/skills/user/test-multitruck-quote/scripts/generate_quote.py /home/claude/generate_multitruck_test.py

Build the JSON payload and run:

python /home/claude/generate_multitruck_test.py '<JSON>'

    "Trucks #1, #2, and #4 ship on standard step deck or box trailer equipment at legal weight and dimensions.",
    "Loading and unloading must be performed by the shipper and consignee using their own equipment and personnel. Driver will assist with strapping, tarping, and securement only.",

Seller block: If no seller info is provided, pass empty strings for all seller fields — the generator suppresses the seller block automatically.

HTML formatting in line_items: The description, notes, and amount fields render as ReportLab Paragraphs and support <b>, <i>, and <br/> tags. Use these for option headers and bold subtotal rows.

Step 3 — Output Filename

ApexTransit_MultiTruck_[CustomerName].pdf

Rules:

• Remove spaces and special characters from customer name
• If buyer is TBD: ApexTransit_MultiTruck_TBD.pdf

---

Step 4 — Present the File

After the script runs, call present_files with the output path. Then give a brief bullet summary:

• Quote # and valid-through date
• Buyer (Apex Transit fictional context)
• Lane (Origin → Destination, ~miles)
• Both Option 1 and Option 2 rates
• Reminder: this is a TEST/DEMO document using Apex Transit LLC (fictional)

---

Document Notices

The generated PDF includes two built-in demo notices that cannot be removed:

• Top banner: *** TEST / DEMO DOCUMENT — NOT FOR CUSTOMER USE ***
• Footer line: *** TEST DOCUMENT — FICTIONAL BROKERAGE — DO NOT DISTRIBUTE ***

This makes the PDF safe to share publicly on social media, in YouTube videos, LinkedIn posts, Twitter/X content, or Skool community lessons.

Social Media Use Cases

This skill is built for:

• YouTube tutorials showing how Claude builds branded freight quotes
• LinkedIn posts demonstrating AI-powered brokerage workflows
• Twitter/X threads showcasing freight tech automation
• Skool community lessons inside La Crown AI
• Screen recordings for sales demos to other brokerages
• Internal testing before shipping changes to the live finemark-rfq skill

Never use for live customer work. For real Finemark quotes, use finemark-rfq instead.
