Run the Amazon FBA Inbound Shipment Process

Run the Amazon FBA inbound shipment process from your AI client: build the plan, compare placement fees and carrier quotes, confirm windows, get labels. The FBA Inbound Skill runs Amazon's Fulfillment Inbound workflow through the Selling Partner MCP and waits for you to type CONFIRM before any step that costs money or cannot be undone.

Starter prompt

Start with the task, then add your scope.

Copy this into a connected client and replace the account, date, ASIN, or threshold details with yours.

Send stock to Amazon: create an inbound plan for these SKUs and quantities from our warehouse. Show placement fees and carrier quotes side by side, and wait for my CONFIRM before anything that costs money or cannot be undone.
The Skill will request any required context or approval before guarded actions.
The outcome

A defined result, not a generic answer.

A confirmed inbound plan with shipment IDs, destinations, the carrier and cost committed, the free-cancellation deadline, and the one next step you own.

Inputs
  • Ship-from address with a contact name and phone number
  • Each SKU's quantity, prep owner, and label owner
  • Box dimensions, weights, and contents, plus a ready-to-ship date
Outputs
  • Placement fees beside carrier quotes
  • Box labels, bill of lading, or tracking entered
  • Plan summary with the free-cancellation deadline
Workflow

The playbook your agent follows.

  1. 01

    Create the plan

    Collect the ship-from address, marketplace, and each SKU's quantity, prep owner, and label owner in one ask, then create the inbound plan.

  2. 02

    Pack

    Generate packing options, confirm the one you choose, and set the box contents for each packing group.

  3. 03

    Quote before committing

    Generate placement options and carrier quotes for your ready-to-ship date, reading every page, so the total landed cost is on the table first.

  4. 04

    Decide at the hard gate

    Restate each irreversible call with its exact amount and currency, and wait for you to type CONFIRM before placement and transport are committed.

  5. 05

    Label and track

    Pull box labels, get the bill of lading for a partnered pallet shipment, or add your own carrier's tracking.

  6. 06

    Summarize

    Report plan and shipment IDs, destinations, the carrier and cost committed, the free-cancellation deadline, and the next action you own.

Guardrails

What keeps the workflow dependable.

Placement, transport, cancellation, and manual box-content processing wait for an explicit pick and a typed CONFIRM; "ok" is a preference, not a confirmation
Options are never picked for you, except a single fee-free packing option, and the Skill says when it did
An expired option is regenerated, never confirmed
Only the addresses, dimensions, quantities, dates, and tracking numbers you supply are used
Connected systems

The context and tools it coordinates.
