How many steps each skill asks of you

When your AI agent uses a TinyCloud skill, it sometimes needs you. You approve something in OpenKey, paste or type a code, or answer a yes-or-no question. Each of those counts as one step here. A new agent is one using the skill for the first time on your computer. A returning agent has used it before and still has a valid sign-in. The table shows how many steps each task took in our latest test runs. Counts marked "scripted owner" come from a test run in which a script does each step a person would do. A person re-checks the main tasks.
