- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Start or modify a booking session: add one or more SLIPs (from a rated checkfront_get_item / checkfront_list_items call), replace a line with a new SLIP (line_id + slip), or alter lines (quantity, 'remove', 'optin'/'optout' for package add-ons). Holds the inventory while the session is open; NOTHING is booked until checkfront_create_booking. Returns the session_id to reuse. Checkfront: POST /api/3.0/booking/session.
```

### `checkfront_check_in_booking`

- The description's first verb is "mark": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Mark a guest as arrived (check in) or departed (check out). Checkfront adds a note under the acting account. VOID and cancelled bookings cannot be checked in or out. Checkfront: POST /api/3.0/booking/{booking_id}/checkin or /checkout.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Commit a booking: from a session_id (built with checkfront_add_to_booking_session) or directly from SLIPs, plus the customer form fields (see checkfront_get_booking_form for which are required — typically customer_name and customer_email). Creates a real reservation that consumes inventory and may notify the customer; change it later with checkfront_update_booking_status. Returns the new booking's ids and any invoice/payment URL. Checkfront: POST /api/3.0/booking/create.
```

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Abandon a booking session: 'clear' empties its items, 'end' closes it. Releases the inventory it was holding; no booking is affected. Checkfront: POST /api/3.0/booking/session/clear or /booking/session/end.
```

### `checkfront_update_booking_status`

- The name "checkfront_update_booking_status" says "update": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Set a booking's status — e.g. confirm a pending booking (PAID/PART), put it on HOLD or WAIT(list), or cancel it (VOID/STOP). Reversible: set it back to the previous status the same way. Does NOT record a payment. Optionally triggers the account's customer notifications. Checkfront: POST /api/3.0/booking/{booking_id}/update.
