What it does

This skill loads a body of domain knowledge written in Japanese that tells the agent to act like a senior transport manager with 15+ years of experience managing trucking, LTL and intermodal carriers. Once installed, when you ask about choosing carriers, negotiating freight rates, running an RFP, or tracking carrier performance, the agent follows a structured process: vetting carriers via FMCSA SAFER, structuring RFPs, breaking rates into line-haul, fuel surcharge and accessorial components, building routing guides, and scoring carriers on on-time, claims, tender acceptance and cost. It also includes reference figures such as typical LTL discounts and accessorial fee ranges, and a target mix of roughly 75-85% contract freight.

Great for

  • Logistics or transport managers who want a structured checklist for carrier negotiations and scorecards
  • Shippers or small brokers preparing an annual lane-level RFP
  • Teams wanting a Japanese-language reference for freight contract concepts

Skip it if

  • Making binding rate or contract decisions: the figures (e.g. 70-85% LTL discounts, $50-$100/hour detention) are generic examples, not verified current market data, so check live DAT or carrier quotes
  • Safety or legal compliance sign-off: it mentions FMCSA SAFER checks but gives no verification procedure, and the agent may not have live access to those systems
  • Users outside freight logistics, where the content has no relevance

Try asking

  • “Help me set up a 90-day trial scorecard for a new regional LTL carrier”
  • “Structure an RFP package for a 200-lane truckload bid and suggest scoring criteria”
  • “A primary carrier dropped tender acceptance to 60%; draft a rerouting plan to a backup carrier”
  • “Break down this carrier invoice into line-haul, fuel and accessorial charges and flag negotiable items”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Provide your own lane, volume and market rate data, since the skill's numbers are illustrative and not current benchmarks.
  • Ask for the output in English if you need it, as the skill's body is written in Japanese.
  • The skill references a routing-guide document that is not included in this folder, so the agent will not have those details unless you supply them.
