Family Travel Assistant

A personal travel concierge built as a Claude Cowork plugin. It knows your family — passports, preferences, loyalty programs, school holidays, past trips — and handles everything from destination research to booking preparation.

You say "10 days somewhere warm in February, ~€8k" and it comes back with curated options, ready to book.

How It Works

The plugin combines persistent family data with Claude's browser capabilities to automate the tedious parts of travel planning:

1. You describe the trip — dates, vibe, budget
2. It researches — destinations, flights, accommodation via live browser search
3. It compares — structured tables with prices, ratings, and recommendations
4. It prepares the booking — pre-fills passenger details, selects seats, applies loyalty numbers
5. You pay — the plugin always stops at the payment page

Safety boundary: The plugin never enters payment information or clicks pay. You always complete the final step yourself.

Skills

Skills are domain knowledge that Claude loads automatically — they shape how it reasons about travel decisions.

• Family Profile — loads family data at session start, calculates children's ages dynamically, flags profile gaps
• Document Vault — passport validity rules by destination (Schengen/USA/UK/other), authorization tracking (ESTA/ETA/eTA), child-specific checks
• Flight Research — search priority (Google Flights → SAS.dk → Momondo), filtering rules, seat strategy, EuroBonus optimization
• Accommodation Research — platform priority (Airbnb → Booking.com), minimum requirements (4+ bedrooms, full kitchen, private garden), evaluation criteria
• Itinerary Builder — pacing rules (max 2 activities/day, buffer days every 3–4 days), age-appropriate filtering, geographic grouping
• Booking Handoff — form-filling strategy by booking type, payment boundary enforcement

Agents

Browser-driven sub-agents that open Chrome and search the web in real time:

• Flight Scout — searches multiple flight sites, filters by family constraints, returns top 3 options
• Accommodation Scout — searches Airbnb and Booking.com, evaluates properties against family requirements
• Destination Researcher — browses travel sites, blogs, and tourism boards to curate destination options
• Document Checker — validates passport validity and travel authorizations per destination rules

Data

All family data lives in data/ as YAML files:

File	Contents
family-profile.yaml	Family members, travel preferences, budget ranges, loyalty programs
document-vault.yaml	Passport numbers, expiry dates, ESTA/ETA status per member
trip-history.yaml	Past and upcoming trips with ratings and notes
school-calendar.yaml	Danish school holidays by year
scheduled-tasks.yaml	Recurring tasks — passport checks, pre-trip reminders, calendar updates
