Before you start
A few things to know.
Can it see a different window?
Share the current window or its relevant text; a stale view can lead to a wrong answer.
Will it click for me?
This page focuses on explanation. Use an in-app action only when you can verify what it will change.
Can I ask again after the screen changes?
Yes. Share the changed view so the next answer uses current context.
