quick_room_list
Works out how much paint, wallpaper, wall tiles, flooring, carpet, skirting, loft insulation, plasterboard, concrete or patio paving one room needs, and everything else to buy for the job (preparation, tools, safety), in real UK pack sizes. Takes the job and either the room's length, width and height, or a typical room by name for a room that has not been measured; the answer then states that the measurements are typical. Returns a short shopping list and a link to the whole list. It does not take exact door sizes, a product's own coverage or pack size, tiling part-way up a wall or an L-shaped room.
plan_room
Works out the whole shopping list for one room, with every option the planner has: exact door and window sizes, a product's own coverage and pack sizes, an L-shaped room, tiling part-way up a wall. Arguments are the named parameters of /plan.json. A job is required. Repeated door, window and opening values are arrays. No price is used; price arguments are ignored and named in the answer. Returns a short shopping list: each item with its quantity and reason, and a link to the whole list.
find_guide
Finds BuildBatch's guides for a decorating or flooring question (how long between coats, how many tiles in a square metre, what to buy to lay laminate), and returns up to three with each guide's own short answers and its address. It does not work out quantities for a room.
ask_questions
Returns BuildBatch's full ordered question script (about 24 KB) for a detailed room plan: each question for the person, its allowed answers, which are required and when each applies. Takes no arguments.
