# Show me in Sterling

When an answer touches something you can do in the app, the Analyst offers to show you. A gold **Show me in Sterling** chip appears under the answer, beside the feedback controls. While a long answer is still streaming, the chip may read **Preparing a walkthrough…** until it is ready.

## Playing a walkthrough

Select the chip. Sterling plays a short walkthrough in your browser: it navigates to the right page, moves a cursor, spotlights the relevant control with a caption, sets filters, and types where needed. A walkthrough has at most seven steps and takes a few seconds.

To stop, select the **×** on the chip or select anywhere outside the Analyst panel. Stopping is immediate.

## What a walkthrough can and cannot do

* It only touches controls Sterling has declared for walkthroughs. It never presses a control that commits to something: buy, sell, submit, pay, delete, post, sign out.
* It does not open pages your plan does not include. If a step cannot be shown, the walkthrough falls back to describing it in words.
* The offer belongs to the answer it appears under. Sending a new message clears it.

Walkthroughs are a demonstration, not an action taken on your behalf. Nothing changes in your account unless you do it yourself afterward.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sterlinglabs.co/the-analyst/show-me.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
