## The prompt

```text
List my wholesale customers. Then look at their completed and processing orders from the last 90 days and tell me the average and typical order total. Suggest a cart subtotal threshold a bit above the average, and a discount to go with it. Show me your suggestion and the checkout label you will use, and wait for my OK. Then add the cart subtotal discount for the [wholesale_customer] role.
```
