The console the shop runs on.
Two views of the same job: what the shop sees, and what you see. The buttons below are not pictures — they run the same approval state machine, the same 10% re-authorization threshold and the same core-aging arithmetic as the engine. Try approving something over your limit.
Today's board
Every job in the shop, with the evidence grade attached. Note PP-4421 — the engine refused to price it, so it carries no number at all rather than a guess.
The approval gate
Pick who you are, then try to release a job. Spend limits are real and enforced. Try signing in as PartPilot AI — the engine refuses to let itself approve a purchase, and that refusal is structural rather than a setting somebody could switch off.
When the bay finds something
The single most common way a repair bill turns into an argument. Pick what the job actually came to:
Core deposits — money with a clock on it
Cores are refundable deposits sitting on the shop's books. Miss the window and the money is simply gone, which is why they get their own ledger instead of a note on a whiteboard.
What deposit to take
Never a flat percentage. The floor is the largest of three terms, so a big non-returnable part can't leave the shop funding somebody else's alternator.
Supplier scorecard
Suppliers are scored on how often they send the right part first time and how painful a return is — then priced accordingly, automatically.
Your repair, not a mystery
The same job from the other side of the counter — including the two lines most shops would rather you didn't look at closely.
