What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins in plugins/carsxe/carsxe-codex-plugin/skills/recalls-batch/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

When the user wants bulk recall checks (many VINs, a fleet, a CSV, or a spreadsheet):

  1. Submit — POST at least one of vins, csv, or csvUrl (max 10,000 unique VINs):
    POST https://api.carsxe.com/v1/recalls-batch/submit?key={CARSXE_API_KEY}&source=codex_plugin
    Content-Type: application/json
    {"vins":["..."],"csv":"...","csvUrl":"...","webhookUrl":"..."}
    
    Include only provided fields. csvUrl must be HTTPS and hosted on an allowed provider (Google Sheets, GCS, S3, Dropbox, Azure Blob, DigitalOcean Spaces, Box). Max file size: 5 MB. Return batchId, status, totalVins, processedVins, hitCount, and timestamps.
  2. Status — poll until completed, partial, or failed (every 30–60 seconds; full processing often takes 30–60 minutes unless all VINs are cached):
    GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/recalls-batch/status?key={CARSXE_API_KEY}&batchId={BATCH_ID}&source=codex_plugin
    
    Present status (uploading | processing | completed | partial | failed), progress (processedVins / totalVins), hitCount, hitRate, and errorMessage if failed.
  3. Results (JSON) once complete:
    GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/recalls-batch/results?key={CARSXE_API_KEY}&batchId={BATCH_ID}&source=codex_plugin
    
    Present job summary, then each VIN: hasRecalls, recallCount, and recall titles / NHTSA numbers / remedy status. HTTP 409 means the batch is still processing.
  4. Download (CSV) if the user wants a file:
    GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/recalls-batch/download?key={CARSXE_API_KEY}&batchId={BATCH_ID}&source=codex_plugin
    
    This returns text/csv, not JSON.
  5. For a single VIN use vehicle-recalls (/v1/recalls). For year/make/model with no VIN use recalls-ymm (/v1/recalls-ymm).
  6. If the API key is missing, tell the user to set the CARSXE_API_KEY environment variable (see AGENTS.md).
