-Claude asks whether you already know what you want to learn. If you don't, it reads your project's findings and where visitors left, and suggests two or three researches, saying which evidence comes from real visitors and which from virtual users. With no data yet, it offers to send a few virtual users first. It then reads your code to write the tasks and their success conditions (the page that means done, or the exact button), and saves the research only after you approve it — as a draft in your Inbox, where you create it. It then offers to walk each task in a browser and record its expected path; the paths stay with the draft and move into the research when you create it.

+## 6. Plan each task's route
 
-Show the whole research compactly: the purpose and its evidence, each task with how it counts as done (in plain words, no paths or XPath), the questions, and the invite. Change whatever they ask for.
+The results tell who went straight from who took a detour only when a task has an expected path: the route the site was built for. Work it out now, from the code, for every task with a page or click to reach (tasks done by staying on a page have none):
+- **where it starts**: the page a participant is on when the task begins;
+- **the clicks a participant must make**, in order — the main route the UI offers, not a shortcut only you know;
+- **where it ends**: the page or the click that counts as done. It must agree with the task's success condition.
+- what the route needs: a signed-in demo account, or a write the safety guard does not send (the last click is then recorded without pressing it).
 
-On their approval, call `research_save` with `basis` (`real` if the evidence came from real visitors, `virtual` if only from virtual users, `none` otherwise) and the ids of the findings it answers. Give them the Inbox link it returns and tell them it stays a draft until they create it in the Inbox, where they also set when the invite appears.
+## 7. Show the user everything at once
 
-## 7. Record each task's expected path
+Show the whole research compactly: the purpose and its evidence, each task with how it counts as done (in plain words, no XPath) and its route in one line, the questions, and the invite. Say that on their approval you will walk each route in a browser and save the draft with the routes. Change whatever they ask for.
 
-The results tell who went straight from who took a detour only when a task has an expected path, and walking it in a browser confirms the success condition you wrote from the code. Ask the user whether to record the paths now. If they say no, tell them `{{path_cmd}}` with the research id does it after the research is created, and stop.
+## 8. On approval: record the routes, then save
 
-For each task with a page or click to reach (skip tasks that are done by staying on a page), use the task id `research_save` listed for it, `draft:<draft>:<number>`:
+Do not ask again between these steps. For each task with a route, in order, use the task id `plan-<n>` (n = the task's position in the research, from 1):

-### Show the user, then save
+### Save each route
 
-Show the user the steps and the screenshots `path_check` lists. Ask whether this is the route they intend, and whether the task should be done on reaching the last page (`page`), on the last recorded click (`click`), or keep the condition you wrote (`keep`). With page or click the path ends at that point — say so when the route goes on after it.
+When `path_check` passes and the route ends where the plan said, call `path_save` (`page` or `click` when the route's end is the task's success condition, otherwise `keep`). It is kept until the draft is saved. Stop and ask the user only when a route cannot be walked as planned — the site differs from the code, a check keeps failing, or the route needs a write or a sign-in you do not have; leave that task without a route if they say so.
 
-On their approval, call `path_save`. The path stays in the draft and moves into the research when it is created; a draft that is discarded, or not created within 30 days, loses its paths. When all tasks are done, tell the user which have a path and any you could not record and why.
+### Save the draft
+
+Then call `research_save` with `basis` (`real` if the evidence came from real visitors, `virtual` if only from virtual users, `none` otherwise) and the ids of the findings it answers. It uploads the routes you saved with the draft. Tell the user:
+- the Inbox link, and that it stays a draft until they create it there, where they also set when the invite appears;
+- which tasks have a route and the screenshots `path_check` listed for them, and any task left without one and why;
+- a draft that is discarded, or not created within 30 days, loses its routes.
+
+To redo a route later: `path_start` with `draft:<draft>:<index>` while the draft exists, or `{{path_cmd}}` with the research id once it is created.
 
 Do not change any code.
