Give every required step evidence
Synthetic guide G-301 has three required steps: select October, export the agreed rows and verify A,B in the file. The first two have recorded trials; the final verification step is only proposed. The fixture keeps the guide draft until the complete task can be followed with a supported result. A successful ticket can supply source material, but it does not validate newly added steps that were never tested.
| Required step | Input / action | Evidence | Publication readiness |
|---|---|---|---|
| Select period | 2026-10 | Trial G-1 recorded | Supported |
| Export rows | A,B scope | Trial G-2 recorded | Supported |
| Verify file contents | A,B in final file | Proposed; not tested | Guide remains draft |

- List required guide steps
- Attach step evidence
- Run the full sequence
- Release only supported instructions
If a proposed step is optional, label it optional and verify its own effect before recommending it.
How many required steps are supported, and is the guide ready?
Show the worked answer
Two of three. The guide is not ready because its required final verification lacks evidence; do not claim all three steps were tested.
Test the complete required sequence on its stated inputs. A guide can remain draft while a proposed step awaits evidence.
