Event-driven automation without leaving the shop or writing code.
Whenever someone places an order, I want them to get a short thank-you email from me, addressed with their first name. Set that up as an automation inside the shop so it runs by itself from now on. Find out first which triggers and actions this shop actually supports and which customer fields you can put in the mail — then build it on the order trigger, switch it on, and read it back to confirm it exists and is active. Write the email itself as well: subject and body, warm but short, in the shop's language, with the first name filled in dynamically. Show me the exact text you used.
Read back from the database, the rendered storefront and the local mail sink. No model involved.
| Result | Check | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| PASS | A workflow was created on a trigger matching order/bestellung created: #3956 orderPlaced → sendMail |
3 |
| PASS | That workflow is active isActive=1 |
2 |
| PASS | Its action is an e-mail action action=sendMail |

| PASS | Called describe_workflow_capabilities before creating describe at #0, create at #3 |

| PASS | The stored workflow arguments contain a first-name placeholder placeholder present in arguments |

Scored by opus, which saw only the evidence bundle.
| Criterion | Score | Reason | |
|---|---|---|---|
correctnessThe workflow is on the right trigger, sends mail, is active, and personalises with a real field name from this shop. |
9/10 | calls.jsonl #4/#5 create workflow 3956 on orderPlaced → sendMail with isActive:true, toMail {$customer->cMail} and subject/body using {$customer->cVorname}; state_diff.json and the admin_workflows.png row 'Bestellung eingegangen / E-Mail senden' (green = active) confirm it, and get_workflow #5 reads it back. | |
methodCapabilities were discovered before building; the placeholder syntax matches what the shop documented. |
9/10 | describe_workflow_capabilities was called twice (index, then trigger/action-scoped placeholder+argument schema) before any write, get_shop_info established language ger, and a dryRun create returned valid:true with no errors/warnings before the real create — placeholders used are the documented Smarty form {$customer->...}/{$order->cBestellNr}/{$global->shopName}. | |
copy_qualityThe email text is short, warm, correct in the shop's language, and would not embarrass the owner. |
7/10 | Short, warm, grammatically clean German with correct HTML structure and customLayout:"1", but it addresses customers with informal 'du/deine' in a shop whose formality was never checked — a real risk of embarrassing an owner whose shop otherwise uses 'Sie'. | |
communicationThe exact subject and body are shown back to the owner. |
6/10 | ANSWER.md presents subject and body clearly but paraphrases the placeholders as {Vorname}/{Shopname}/{Bestellnummer} and drops the HTML markup, so it is not the exact stored text ({$customer->cVorname} etc.) the owner explicitly asked to see. |
It validated the exact payload with dryRun:true and only then wrote for real, then re-read workflow 3956 from the shop — six calls, zero failures, zero retries.
The owner asked for the exact text and got a prettified version with invented placeholder names ({Vorname}) instead of the stored {$customer->cVorname} HTML body, so the owner cannot verify or re-edit what actually runs.

## Hinweis
E-Mails landen in diesem Testsystem in einem lokalen Auffangbecken, nicht bei echten Kunden —
für den Live-Betrieb ist das Verhalten aber identisch.
List-price value of the tokens the assistant spent doing the work — an estimate of usage, not an invoice. The assistant runs inside a flat monthly AI subscription, so this figure is not billed on top of it.
Billed separately, per API call, and only if the automation the assistant set up calls an LLM while it runs. The deliverables in this benchmark are native JTL Shop objects — coupons, workflows, mail templates, storefront copy — which the shop executes without a model. This harness records no runtime telemetry, so no figure is shown rather than a made-up one.
