Walk the user through a multi-step task (e.g. cloud console / permission / dashboard setup) with a live step tracker that is re-printed at the bottom of every reply so they never scroll up. Use when the user asks to "guide me through", "walk me through", "give me step by step" instructions, "how do I set up ..." for a UI/console task, or invokes guide. Also use when, mid-guide, they say a step "isn't working", "the menu isn't there", or ask a clarifying question about a step.

This solves the core annoyance: when the user asks a follow-up, the instructions scroll out of view and they have to scroll up and down. With this skill, the next steps are always the last thing on screen. ## The tracker block (the key mechanic) Every reply while a guide is active **ends** with a tracker block — it must be the last thing in the message, so it stays pinned to the bottom. Format: ``` --- ✓ Steps 1–4 done ▶ 5. Open IAM → Roles ← you are here 6. Add the principal and pick the role 7. Review and Save ``` Rules for the block: - **Render it as a fenced code block** (triple backticks), exactly like the example above. This preserves the indentation and the `▶`/`✓` markers in a terminal. **Never** use HTML entities like `&nbsp;` or markdown list syntax to indent — they render literally as text in many clients. Plain spaces inside the code fence are all you need. - **Collapse done steps to one line**: `✓ Steps 1–N done` (omit the line if none are done). - Mark the current step with `▶` and `← you are here`. - List every remaining step in full after the current one, indented two spaces. - If the user is stuck on the current step, append `(stuck)` to it: `▶ 5. … (stuck)`. - Nothing comes after the
