When the user wants to create, optimize, or audit a HowTo section block—an in-page block of ordered steps with optional Schema.org HowTo JSON-LD. Also use when the user mentions "HowTo section," "how-to section," "steps section," "quick start," "walkthrough," "tutorial block," "3 steps," "N steps," "simple steps," "tutorial steps," "step-by-step block," "HowTo schema," "HowTo JSON-LD," "instruction steps," "numbered steps SEO," "horizontal tabs for steps," or "procedure section." This skill is for a section inside a page, not a full page template—use article-page-generator, docs-page-generator, or tools-page-generator for page-level layout. For FAQ Q&A blocks, use faq-page-generator. For structured data details beyond HowTo, use schema-markup. For article body copy only, use article-content.

From the source SKILL.md

Guides HowTo as an in-page section: a block of ordered steps (and optional HowTo JSON-LD) embedded inside article, documentation, tool, or landing pages. Not a standalone page type—parent page structure and templates come from article-page-generator, docs-page-generator, tools-page-generator, landing-page-generator, etc. Distinct from FAQ (Q&A → FAQPage) and from full article body drafting alone (article-content). schema-markup remains the source for exhaustive Schema.org property rules and type-wide tables; this skill owns section-level placement, copy, HTML, and HowTo-vs-FAQ decisions.
