Ibo

Create a Stripe Checkout for a package's 50% deposit. Returns checkout_url, stripe_session_id, and amount_due. Show the amount to your user and open checkout_url for THEM to approve and pay; agents never complete payment themselves. Prices are fixed server-side. Pass a stable client_request_id so retries do not create duplicate checkouts.

Get a short-lived presigned URL to upload one brand-asset file to IBO's private storage. Requires order_token from get_order; the storage location is bound to the order server-side. PUT the raw file bytes to url, then reference key in submit_brief files[]. Allowed: jpg png webp pdf svg mp4 mov zip ai psd; 250MB/file, 1GB per order.

Where a custom inquiry stands: awaiting_confirmation (customer hasn't clicked the emailed link yet) or confirmed with the studio stage (new, replied, proposal_sent, won, closed). PII-free; pass the inquiry_id returned by submit_custom_inquiry.

Verify payment after checkout and receive an order-scoped access token. Returns paid, package, deposit, and order_token: use order_token for create_upload_url and submit_brief. Payment status can only be established here, never assumed.

Where a paid order is in production. Returns the studio stage (new, brief_received, in_production, review, delivered) plus paid/package/deposit. PII-free; pass the stripe_session_id from create_checkout/get_order.

IBO's production packages: stable ids, prices, 50% deposits, deliverables, review rounds, and the scope/refund policy. Call this first.

Submit the creative brief for a PAID order: pass order_token (from get_order; session ids are not accepted here) plus project fields (product, goal, audience, channels, resolution, launch, links, constraints) and files[] from create_upload_url. Delivery resolution must be selected before creative kickoff. Customer identity comes from the verified payment. NOTE: unpaid/anonymous submissions are rejected here; for Custom Production inquiries without payment use the submit_custom_inquiry tool instead.

Start a Custom Production conversation without payment. IMPORTANT: interview your user for the real project details FIRST (what they are promoting, audience, formats, delivery resolution, timing); placeholder inquiries are rejected. A 4K Campaign Series must use this route before checkout. Submits a scope inquiry; IBO then emails the customer a one-click confirmation link (double opt-in), and only a confirmed inquiry reaches the studio. Tell your user to check their inbox and click confirm. IBO replies with scope and proposal within one business day of confirmation.
