Useful to borrow

Demonstrate the one-off result before scheduling it. Show the saved recurrence and management surface, not just a conversational promise.

Do not infer

A visible recurring task does not prove a future run succeeded. The presenter-overlay prompt examples near the end are task suggestions, not completed workflows.

20 shot groups.

Read across from the observed content to its treatment and possible adaptation. Enlarge the frame for detail.

Approximate study intervals; horizontal scrolling reveals all columns on small screens.
