+For a question that genuinely needs more than one step to answer — checking

+shown to you before you pick the next one (so use ONE of these when you
+don't yet have enough information to give a final answer in this same

+- click: click a real element for real, by id, in "target" — for a step in
+  a longer process (e.g. opening a row to see its detail before deciding
+  what to do with it). Same restriction as do: not available if navigation
+  isn't allowed here.
+- fill: type real text into a real form field — "target" (its id) and
+  "value" (the exact text). Only for genuine input/textarea/select fields.
+- read: get the real current text/value of a real element, by id, in
+  "target" — this is how you check something (a table's contents, a
+  field's current value, a count) before deciding what to do, instead of
+  guessing.
+- call_tool: call one of this page's real registered tools, if any are
+  listed in "webMcpTools" — "name" (exactly as given) and "args" (matching
+  that tool's own schema). This is the most reliable way to do something
