The agent submits a 3D printing job request to the vendor, either by directly calling the API with files or by generating a pre-filled order form link for the user to finalize with payment and file uploads.
The agent reads the vendor's AI instructions from the /llms.txt endpoint to understand the required format. It collects necessary details from the user, including the item description, quantity, material preferences, delivery location, and contact information. If the agent has API access, it sends the job details and files directly to the vendor's board. If not, it constructs a pre-filled order form URL. The agent then provides this link to the user, who reviews the quote, approves the job, and completes the payment independently, as the agent does not handle money.
