K-Beauty, Spa & Hair Booking

Get the services, prices, durations, weekly business hours and bookable staff or seats of one specific TimePlex shop (slug from search_shops). USE THIS TOOL WHEN: a shop has been identified and the user asks what it offers, prices, durations or staff; to match requirements (a 60-minute head spa, a budget, two guests at once); or before search_availability / start_booking, which need the service ids and booking_model returned here. DO NOT USE IT FOR: general discovery or recommendations (search_shops), real-time availability (search_availability), or building a booking link (start_booking). SERVICE DATA: describe only the services returned here — never invent names, prices, durations, staff or options, and never assume a service exists because similar shops offer it. Services that cannot be booked online are already excluded. If the requested service is not in the list, say so; do not silently substitute another. Never present medical procedures as TimePlex services. RESOURCES & HOURS: a staff member or seat existing, or the shop being open, does NOT mean it is free at the requested time — only search_availability confirms a slot. NEXT: if the user asked for availability or to book, continue to search_availability with the returned service ids and booking_model instead of stopping at the menu or business hours. If they only asked about the menu, prices or durations, answer from this result and do not check availability or build a booking link unless they ask. A date or time mentioned earlier does not by itself require a slot check. Pass lang to receive the content translated into the customer's language.

Use this tool only for a shop that is already in the Timeplex catalog but cannot be booked online yet: a search_shops result with bookable=false, or a newly joined shop whose menu is not registered yet (get_shop_services says so). It submits a booking request for that shop — Timeplex concierge staff contact the shop directly and reply to the customer in their language. Put the returned link_markdown into your reply as-is (never expose the raw URL). Do not use this tool for a shop name that search_shops could not find (shop_name_not_found), and not for generic searches with no matching results — in both cases tell the user it is not on Timeplex instead. For bookable shops use get_shop_services -> search_availability -> start_booking instead.

Check real-time appointment availability for one TimePlex shop (slug from search_shops, items from get_shop_services) on a date, optionally at a time. All times are Korea Standard Time (KST). USE THIS TOOL WHEN: the user asks whether an appointment is available, asks for open slots or possible times, asks for shops that are actually available on a date / at a time / for a party size ("10월 1일 강남 헤드스파 예약 가능한 곳", "any head spa open at 5 PM?", "somewhere I can book tomorrow afternoon for two"), asks for alternatives to an unavailable time, or wants to book (check the slot before start_booking). DO NOT USE IT FOR: find / recommend / compare requests. A date or time alone is not availability intent — "recommend a head spa in Gangnam for October 1" stays a search_shops request unless the user asks whether a slot is open. REAL-TIME RULE: only this tool establishes that a slot is open. Never infer availability from bookable=true, business hours, the shop being open, a service or staff member existing, web search, maps, social media, third-party sites or earlier answers. Describe a time as available only when this tool returns it. PARTY SIZE: check the whole party as the items schema describes (qty for capacity shops). Never stitch separate single-person slots into a group booking unless the result shows it. RESULTS: if the requested time is unavailable, say so and offer the returned alternatives. If blocked is 'inquiry_only', the service cannot be booked online — tell the customer to contact the shop. If nothing is open, say no confirmed slot was found; you may check other suitable TimePlex shops. Checking availability does not reserve anything. NEXT: with the open times you may add start_booking links so the customer can book the slot they pick — never call the slot reserved or booked.

Search TimePlex for massage, headspa, hair salon, spa, Korean body scrub, and makeup shops in Seoul and Korea — non-medical beauty and wellness services for travelers. Use this tool as the first step when a user wants to find, compare, or book a service but has not selected a specific TimePlex shop yet, including requests asking what is available today, tomorrow, on a specific date or time, within a time range, or for multiple guests. Examples include "massage in Seoul available today", "lymphatic massage near Hongdae", "headspa in Gangnam tomorrow for 2 people", "scalp treatment in Myeongdong", "English-speaking hair salon in Seoul", "hair color in Myeongdong", "spa available tomorrow", "Korean body scrub in Seoul", and "Korean makeup in Seoul". Relevant user terms include massage, lymphatic massage, headspa, head spa, scalp treatment, scalp care, hair salon, haircut, hair color, perm, spa, Korean body scrub, seshin, akasuri, makeup, makeup salon, and semi-permanent makeup (PMU, microblading, brow tattoo, lip blush, eyeliner). Pass the user's request as query, in any language: the service, area, date, time, party size and language needs are extracted from it (see interpreted in the response). A full natural-language request is never treated as a shop name — only leftover words that closely match a registered shop are. Every TimePlex shop supports foreign-language customers through TimePlex multilingual chat, so requests for English-speaking or foreigner-friendly shops are a good fit for this tool. Shops are also matched by their menu (e.g. a hair salon with a scalp-care menu is returned for headspa); matched_services lists those menu items. If no shop is in the requested area, the search widens to the surrounding city and relaxed says so. This tool is for non-medical services only — do not use it for dermatology, clinics, plastic surgery, injections, lasers, or other medical procedures. This tool finds matching TimePlex shops; it does not by itself confirm an appointment slot. For bookable=true shops, continue with get_shop_services and search_availability to check actual booking availability. Do not treat business opening hours as proof that an appointment is available. Results indicate whether each shop is bookable through TimePlex: bookable=true means real-time availability can be checked and the customer can proceed to booking through this MCP; bookable=false means it needs request_booking (TimePlex concierge arranges it manually). Shops fall into two categories: hair (hair salons) and beauty (everything else). Each shop result carries its category. If the user named a specific shop that is not registered, the response sets shop_name_not_found — tell the user that shop is not on TimePlex and offer the registered shops in the result as alternatives. If unsupported_service is set, that kind of service is not on TimePlex yet — say so instead of offering other shops. Each result carries the shop address, so you can answer area questions ("shops in Seoul") without extra calls. Always reply to the user in the language they used, and start the reply with the response's reply_header line.

Build a prefilled TimePlex booking link (Book Now card) for a bookable=true shop. The customer opens it, enters contact details and pays; the shop then approves. Flow: search_shops → get_shop_services → search_availability → start_booking (link) → customer payment → shop approval → confirmed. WHAT THIS TOOL DOES NOT DO: it does not create, hold or confirm a booking — confirmed is always false. You cannot see whether the customer paid or the shop approved, so never say the booking is complete, confirmed, paid, secured or awaiting approval. Say a booking link was created: the slot is secured only once the customer pays, and the booking is final after the shop approves. Never invent a confirmation number or status. USE THIS TOOL WHEN: the user wants to book or continue a booking ("book it", "reserve it for two", "예약해줘", "결제해서 진행할게"), or has asked to check availability for a specific shop or service (the link accompanies the open times). Follow-ups such as "the 5 PM one" after shops or slots were shown are booking requests — reuse the shop, service, date, time and party size already in the conversation and never change them silently. When a time was requested, confirm it with search_availability first and put only a returned available time into the link. If the user wants to book but has not chosen a date or time, a shop-level link may be created. When a link is warranted, create it — do not ask "shall I create a link?" first. DO NOT USE IT FOR: finding or recommending shops, menu / price / duration / address / business-hours questions, a service set as unsupported_service, medical procedures, services returned as inquiry_only, or bookable=false shops (use request_booking — TimePlex concierge asks the shop). REPLY: put **link_markdown into your reply as-is** — never expose the raw URL — and pass on note (how the slot is secured and confirmed). Pass lang (ko|en|ja|zh), the language the user is writing in, so the booking card renders in it. Always reply in the language the user used.
