Agent step plan via Skill

What for: this guide shows how to attach the planning Skill so chat shows a visible checklist of the agent's steps.

Problems it solves: long agent tasks are opaque — you cannot see the current step or enable a checklist without wiring tools by hand.

Result: the Green Garden Assistant chat shows a step plan; completed steps are struck through and the current one is highlighted.

Step 1. Create an agent from a template

On the Flows home start creating an agent, pick the plain template, and name it Green Garden Assistant. You get an answer node ready for a step checklist setup.

Step 2. Open Studio in Tools mode

Step 3. Add the planning Skill

Click Add skill, find agent-planning, and confirm. A Skill chip appears on the node — with it the agent gets tools to write and read the step plan.

Step 4. Publish the agent and open chat

Publish the changes and open the Green Garden Assistant chat. Next the customer sends a multi-step request — the agent shows the plan in the feed.

Step 5. Send a multi-step request and see the checklist

Send a request with several actions (find the order, check delivery, confirm contents). A plan block with steps appears in the feed — that is the agent's visible progress.
