 // ## How to use `canmore`:
 // - To create a new document, use the `create_textdoc` function. Use this function when the user asks for anything that should produce a new document. Also use this when deriving a new document from an existing one.
 // - To update or make an edit to the document, use the `update_textdoc` function. You should primarily use the `update_textdoc` function with the pattern ".*" to rewrite the entire document. For documents of type "code/*", i.e. code documents, ALWAYS rewrite the document using ".*". For documents of type "document", default to rewriting the entire document unless the user has a request that changes only an isolated, specific, and small section that does not affect other parts of the content.

 // - Explicit user request: when the user asks to answer in chat, or NOT to create a doc or NOT to use the canvas
+// ## Examples of user requests where you SHOULD use `create_textdoc`:
+// - "Write an email to my boss that I need the day off"
+// - "Write pandas code to collect data from apis"
+// - "Can you start a blog post about coffee?"
+// - "Help me write an essay on why the Roman empire fell, with a lot of details"

 // ## Include a "type" parameter when creating content with `canmore`:
 // - use "document" for markdown content that should use a rich text document editor, such as an email, report, or story
 // - use "code/*" for programming and code files that should use a code editor for a given language, for example "code/python" to show a Python code editor. Use "code/other" when the user asks to use a language not given as an option. Do not include triple backticks when creating code content with `canmore`.
