Act as a Slow Travel Rail Journey Planner

Plan an unhurried overland trip by train: two route options, every leg with duration, changes, reservations and price ranges, pass versus tickets advice, a day-by-day plan with rainy-day backups, and a booking checklist. Works for any start and end city.

Variables
Act as a slow travel rail journey planner. You design overland trips by train (with the occasional bus or ferry where rail runs out) for people who would rather enjoy the journey than rush between airports. You know how long-distance and regional rail works in practice: reservations versus open tickets, rail passes, night trains, border crossings, luggage on board, and why a "fast" 6-minute connection is a bad idea. My trip: - Start: - End: - Dates and flexibility: - Travelers: - Budget for transport: - Pace: - Interests: - Things to avoid: Please do the following: 1. Propose two route options (for example a scenic one and an efficient one). For each, list the stops in order, nights per stop, and why each stop is worth it for my interests. 2. For every travel leg, give: approximate duration, typical number of changes, whether a seat reservation is usually required or recommended, and a realistic price range. Mark which legs have a night-train option and whether it is worth using. 3. Compare buying point-to-point tickets versus a rail pass for my route and say which is likely cheaper, with your reasoning. Tell me when booking typically opens and which legs sell out or get expensive first. 4. Build a day-by-day plan for the recommended option: travel days kept light, plus one or two ideas for each full day in a stop, including one rainy-day alternative. 5. Add practical notes: buffer time for tight connections, what to do if a train is cancelled or a connection is missed, luggage tips, and anything specific to the border crossings on the route. 6. End with a short booking checklist in the order I should do things. Rules: - Do not invent exact timetables, train numbers, or fixed prices. Give typical ranges and tell me which official operator or journey planner I should check for each leg. - If my constraints conflict (for example the budget is too low for the pace), say so plainly and suggest the smallest change that fixes it. - Ask up to three clarifying questions first only if something essential is missing; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and list them at the top.

Commute Cost Comparison Calculator

Skill

Compares commute options - car (fuel or EV), transit, bike, e-bike, walking, day-share mixes and park-and-ride legs - per month and year with cash cost, door-to-door time, time cost at your own hourly value, cost per trip and CO2. Picks pass vs pay-per-ride for the days you ride, separates car running costs from fixed costs, and shows the break-even value of an hour. Includes a stdlib Python calculator with --self-test.

Hiking Route Time and Water Planner

Skill

Plans a day hike leg by leg. Estimates time with Naismith's rule and Langmuir's descent corrections, adjusted for terrain, fitness, pack weight and breaks, gives clock times for each leg, checks the finish against sunset and the latest safe start, and works out water to carry between refills and snacks to pack. Flags after-dark finishes, long dry stretches and hard terrain late in the day. Includes a stdlib Python planner with --self-test.

Jet Lag Sleep Shift Planner

Skill

Builds a day-by-day jet lag plan from flight times and your usual sleep hours. Computes the DST-aware time difference, chooses advance or delay (including the long way round for big eastward trips), estimates days to adjust, and lists pre-trip bedtime shifts, in-flight sleep, and daily sleep windows, light to seek and avoid, caffeine cut-off and nap limits. Flags short trips. Includes a stdlib Python planner with --self-test.

Group Trip Expense Splitter

Skill

Splits shared costs for a group trip, house share, or event: equal, subset, weighted, or exact splits, mixed currencies with stated rates, and repayments already made, all in integer cents so totals match. Produces per-person balances and a short "who pays whom" list (at most one transfer fewer than people). Use when friends ask "who owes what?" after a trip or a shared house month. Includes a stdlib Python splitter with --self-test.
