## The prompt

```text
List my wholesale roles with their member counts and whether each is tax exempt. I want the [Distributor] role to be tax exempt on wholesale-priced products and the [wholesale_customer] role not to be. Show me what will change and wait for my OK. Then make the change and list the roles again so I can see the result.
```

## What happens when you paste it

You: List my wholesale roles with their member counts and whether each is tax exempt…

Assistant: 3 roles. Wholesale Customer: 212 members, not tax exempt. Gold: 34, not tax exempt. Distributor: 6, not tax exempt. Calling: `wholesale-suite/list-wholesale-roles`, `wholesale-suite/map-tax-exempt-roles`.

Assistant: This will make changes in WooCommerce. Do you want me to go ahead?

Assistant: Distributor is now tax exempt on wholesale-priced products. Wholesale Customer stays not exempt. Gold is unchanged.

## Abilities this recipe calls

- **List wholesale roles** (`wholesale-suite/list-wholesale-roles`, read only, from Wholesale Suite): Lists every wholesale role with its member count and tax exempt status.
- **Set tax exempt roles** (`wholesale-suite/map-tax-exempt-roles`, asks first, from Wholesale Suite): Turns tax exemption on or off for a wholesale role.

## Variations

Add one of these to the end of the prompt. Swap anything in [brackets] for your own details.

- Remove the role-level tax setting from [Gold] so it uses the store default.
- Make every wholesale role tax exempt.
