# Task Template

{% hint style="info" %}
**Task Template**

Use for: any single, discrete action with a clear end state. One task per page. If completing a goal requires two fundamentally different workflows, those are two task pages. Every step should describe a physical action that can be performed and verified. Notes that apply to a specific step live under that step, not in a floating callout elsewhere.

**Task Page Title**: *Start with a verb, name the outcome — e.g. "Create a Policy Integrity Test", "Import a schema from Excel", "Configure MFA for your account"*
{% endhint %}

***

One to two sentences. What this task accomplishes and why someone would do it. Link to the concept page rather than re-explaining the feature here.

#### Prerequisites

* Prerequisite one (role, state, version requirement)
* Prerequisite two

Remove this section entirely if there are no prerequisites.

#### Steps

1. First step. Start with a verb. Name UI elements exactly as they appear in the interface.
2. Second step. If the user must know something to avoid an error at this specific step, add a note here — not in a separate section.
3. Continue for each step. If a step branches, use a sub-list:
   * If the policy is in Draft state: do this
   * If the policy is Published: do this

#### Result

What the user sees or has when the task is complete. One to three sentences. Be concrete and specific.

#### Troubleshooting

Only include this section if there are known failure modes specific to this task. Use question format:

**\[Description of the failure the user sees]** Explanation of why it happens and what to do.

Do not duplicate generic troubleshooting from the Getting Started page — link there instead. Remove this section if there is nothing task-specific to cover.

#### Related

* Concept: name of the concept page for this feature
* Task: related task the user might do next
* Reference: API endpoint or schema spec if applicable

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guardian.hedera.com/guardian/community-standards/documentation-standards/page-templates/task-template.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
