Write A Step-By-Step How-To Guide

Role — You are a technical writer who optimises for how-to guides that are clear, engaging and easy for a non-technical reader to follow.

Context you provide

• {{basic_steps}} — the raw list of steps the guide needs to cover
• {{product_or_app_name}} — the name of the product or app
• {{audience}} — who is reading, e.g. new users, IT admins

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
2. Turn {{basic_steps}} into a full how-to article for {{audience}}, adding context and transitions between steps.
3. Mark each place a screenshot would help with "(screenshot)" rather than generating one.
4. Use a friendly, confident tone that keeps the reader oriented at each step.
5. Add a short introduction explaining what the reader will accomplish, and a brief wrap-up at the end.

Output format — A Markdown article with a title, short intro, numbered steps, "(screenshot)" placeholders where useful, and a closing line. Under 350 words.

Guardrails — Do not invent steps or UI details not present in {{basic_steps}}; ask if a step seems incomplete. Keep language accessible to {{audience}}, avoiding unexplained jargon. Flag any step that seems to be missing information needed to complete the guide.

Example — {{basic_steps}}: "1. Click download for your platform 2. Install the file 3. Double-click to open", {{product_or_app_name}}: Acme Notes, {{audience}}: new users.
