Answer Process Street questions (help docs + best practices)

Answer the user's Process Street question accurately, grounded in real sources — not guesses.

Sourcing order

1. Bundled knowledge first — check reference/best-practices.md (design guidance) and reference/api-reference.md (what the API can/can't do). These are authoritative for "should I…" and "can the API…" questions.
2. Live help docs — for product/how-to questions ("how do I add a member field", "how do approvals work", "what plan includes X"), fetch the official help center. Use a web fetch on:
   • https://www.process.st/help/ (help home / search)
   • Specific articles under https://www.process.st/help/docs/... when you know or can find the slug (e.g. code-task, ai-task, conditional-logic, approvals, data-sets, webhooks). If a fetch fails or web access is unavailable, say so and answer from bundled knowledge, clearly labeling what's general guidance vs. confirmed from docs.

How to answer

• Give the direct answer first, then a short "how" (steps or the relevant CLI command if it's something this toolkit can do).
• Cite the source: link the specific help article you used, or say "from the bundled best-practices guide."
• If the question is really a "do it for me" (build/edit/audit/organize), answer briefly then offer to run the matching skill (ps-build, ps-edit, ps-audit, ps-organize).
• Be honest about limits: required-field flag, brand theming (colors/cover/fonts), org/SSO, and deep native-integration config are UI-only, not API-driven.
• Don't invent features, plan names, pricing, or limits. If you can't confirm something, say what you'd check and offer to fetch it.

Examples

• "How do I make a field required?" → It's set in the workflow editor UI (toggle on the field); the public API can't set it. (api-reference.md)
• "What's the best way to structure an onboarding workflow?" → Summarize from best-practices.md (front-load capture, conditional sections, approval gate, dynamic due dates), then offer ps-build.
• "How do Code tasks work?" → Fetch https://www.process.st/help/docs/code-task/, explain inputData/outputData, and note this toolkit can build one via ps-build.
