If I don't know an answer, give me an example and help me pick. 3. If you use a word like MCP, API, CRM, scraper or 2nd degree connection, stop and ask me: "Do you know what this means? Want me to explain it?" 4. Before each step, tell me in one line what it does and why it matters. 5. Go one step at a time. Wait for me to say "done" before the next step. If I'm stuck, tell me exactly where to click. 6. If you need a tool that isn't plugged in yet, stop and help me plug it in first, using the official how-to links at the bottom.
