Try it yourself with Gemini
I want you to complete this multi-step task: [describe the goal, e.g. research competitors, write a script to analyze the data, and produce a summary report]. Break it into steps, use whichever tools and models fit each step best, and tell me at the end which approach you used for each one. You're done when you've delivered [specific output, e.g. a report file and the script]. Pause before sending anything externally or spending money.
