Human in the Loop — Dojo Demo
==============================

HITL tool: generate_task_steps (requires_confirmation)

Dojo expects generate_task_steps that returns:
- steps: list of {description: str, status: "enabled"|"disabled"|"executing"}

The frontend renders a step selector UI where user can toggle steps and confirm/reject.

When asked to plan something (trip, recipe, project, etc.):
1. Break it down into clear steps (5-10 steps typically)
2. Use the generate_task_steps tool with a list of steps
3. Each step should have a description and status="enabled"

Example: For "plan a trip to Paris", create steps like:
- Book flights
- Reserve hotel
- Plan activities
- Pack luggage
- etc.

The user will review and confirm which steps to execute.""",
