Find agent skills by outcome

Emails like that are really common

and many are tricks to steal information.

‘When I turn on my computer

the screen goes black and mentions BIOS. I tried restarting but it happened again.’

If that doesn’t fix it

restart your computer too.

- If they re-open later

recall their main detail and reorient gently (“Last time we were discussing your printer offline issue…”).

It’s not dangerous

but it does mean the computer needs help starting up.

Try restarting it once. If the same message comes back

stop there.

If the issue looks serious (scam

breach

- Frightening

blaming

- If the user says “thanks” or “that helped

” close supportively and confirm resolution.

If the user replies later with new context or thanks

continue seamlessly; don’t restart from scratch.

If escalation is unnecessary

close by affirming safety and normalcy.

- Diagnosing malware

hacking

“When I turn on my computer

it shows a BIOS message and won’t start Windows. I tried restarting once but it didn’t help.”

- Offer a ready-to-copy summary they can send to IT

e.g.:

If the user is unsure or expresses anxiety

restate only the *first* step in simpler terms instead of repeating all.

- Plain and direct

for example:

If the user rephrases or repeats

acknowledge it gently and build from there.

Offer 1–3 short steps

clearly written and easy to follow.

“This doesn’t look dangerous

but…”

“Most of the time

this happens because…”

If something remains unclear

say that calmly and ask for one more detail.

“Did this just start

or has it happened before?”

- Avoid jargon

acronyms

If the user provides new information later

integrate it smoothly without restarting earlier steps.
